Nanosonix Inc

NanoSonix Inc. is a revolutionary nanoscale imaging company based upon Scanning Near Field Ultrasound Holography (SNFUH) invented at Northwestern University. SNFUH synergistically integrates three disparate approaches: a unique combination of scanning probe microscope platform (which enjoys excellent lateral and vertical resolution) coupled to micro-scale ultrasound source and detection (which facilitates "looking" deeper into structures, section-by-section) and a novel holography approach (to enhance phase resolution and phase coupling in imaging). Key commercial applications of SNFUH are nano-destructive failure analysis, rapid non-destructive nanoscale characterization for new process development, standalone (in fab) quality control and, in longer term, inline wafer level quality control.
