Applied Materials
Application
Fab software that uses machine learning to predict metrology measurement values in real time with confidence scores, reducing reliance on physical measurement and auto-retraining models when drift is detected.
Software that augments existing run-to-run process control with machine learning models that recommend recipe parameter adjustments for high-mix, low-volume and nonlinear processes.
AI-based fab software that automatically detects and classifies wafer inspection images into more than 100 defect categories, replacing manual and rule-based defect review.
Platform
Applied's Actionable Insight Accelerator platform, which combines chamber sensors, inline metrology, digital twins and machine learning algorithms to optimise semiconductor process recipes from millions of wafer and chip measurements.
Data and model management platform that covers the full AI/ML lifecycle for fabs, from data preparation and model building through deployment and drift monitoring, without requiring coding expertise.
ZEISS
Application
App for ZEISS INSPECT X-Ray that detects, segments and evaluates defects in industrial CT scans with pre-trained or customised AI models, including on noisy scans with artifacts.
Deep-learning support tool built into ZEISS CIRRUS OCT devices that reviews macular OCT scans and flags the B-scans that may need closer review, such as subretinal or intraretinal fluid and retinal pigment epithelium changes, and can be switched off when not wanted.
An AI assistant advises users on microscopy experiment planning and image acquisition setup.
Cloud application for cataract surgeons that stores surgical videos exported from ZEISS CALLISTO eye, arranges them in a case library with biometry and device data, and uses an AI segmentation algorithm to give surgeon and clinic performance dashboards and step-by-step review.
A licensed ZEN toolkit provides image denoising, segmentation, object classification and model training.
Microscopy software for acquiring images, analysing samples and managing results across ZEISS light and electron microscopes, with AI-based segmentation and classification that users train in the software with no programming, plus an image database and industrial analysis workflows.
An image analysis application supports visualization pipelines and AI model training.
Platform
No counterpart
Applied Materials sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for ZEISS yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
Hardware
Brightfield optical wafer inspection system whose third-generation ExtractAI technology pairs its scan data with SEMVision eBeam review to separate yield-killing defects from millions of nuisance signals.
Integrated die-to-wafer hybrid bonding system for HBM, AI accelerators and co-packaged optics, with an AIx-powered software suite providing predictive maintenance, die-level traceability and multi-binning.
Cold field emission eBeam defect review system that integrates deep learning AI to automatically extract and classify yield-killing defects from wafer inspection data.
Modular wafer-processing platform holding four to twelve mixed ALD, CVD, epitaxy and etch chambers, instrumented with thousands of sensors that feed Applied's AIx software for machine-learning recipe acceleration.
