16 January 2009

Rudolph Technologies has launched a new technology by the name of Discover Solar, a software tool designed to help photovoltaic manufacturers increase cell efficiency.

Paul McLaughlin, CEO of Rudolph, said, ‘At Rudolph, we recognise that increased competitiveness and demand in the solar industry requires PV manufacturers to focus on cell efficiency to maximize margins. Our new fabulous management software, Discover Solar, was designed to help PV manufacturers accomplish this, while at the same time, produce cost reductions that will further help the industry reach ‘grid parity’. While it builds on our extensive experience and leadership in integrated circuit manufacturing, Discover Solar was specifically designed to accommodate the critically important differences in the PV fabrication process.’

Mike Plisinski, vice president of the company’s Data Analysis and Review Business Unit added, ‘Based on our success with Discover^T analysis and data management software for the semiconductor industry, Discover Solar incorporates a completely re-engineered database structure and analysis engine optimized for the unique requirements of high-volume photovoltaic production.’

Rudolph Technologies is focused on the design, development, manufacture and support of high-performance process control metrology, defect inspection and data analysis systems used by semiconductor device manufacturers.
