Sustainability
Sustainability in semiconductors drives progress in green energy and electric vehicles. Onto Innovation supports this shift with advanced metrology and process control for compound and power semiconductor manufacturing.
Green Energy
As the world shifts toward renewable energy sources, the demand for efficient power conversion and management is surging. This transition hinges on compound semiconductors like silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN), which are essential for high-voltage, high-efficiency applications such as solar inverters and wind turbines. However, these materials present unique challenges in manufacturing, including defect detection and process variability.
Onto Innovation addresses these challenges through advanced metrology and inspection solutions tailored for the specialty semiconductor market. Our tools enable precise characterization of compound semiconductor wafers, ensuring quality and reliability in power devices. By enhancing yield and reducing waste, Onto Innovation plays a critical role in making green energy technologies more scalable and sustainable.

Electric Vehicles
Electric vehicles (EVs) are transforming transportation, but their performance and efficiency depend heavily on power semiconductors that manage energy flow between the battery and motor. These devices must operate reliably under high voltages and temperatures, making process control a critical factor in their production.
Onto Innovation supports this evolution with cutting-edge process control solutions that optimize the fabrication of power semiconductor devices. Our technologies help manufacturers detect defects early, monitor critical parameters, and maintain tight process windows—helping to ensure the high performance and safety standards EVs demand. By enabling more efficient and reliable power electronics, Onto Innovation is helping accelerate the global shift to electric mobility.
