Gigavis, a global leader in semiconductor substrate inspection, is showing strong performance. The news of acquiring a patent related to the Automatic Optical Repairer (AOR), a technology that is difficult to advance, appears to be influencing the stock price.
As of 2:13 PM on the 23rd, Gigavis is trading at 80,800 KRW, up 14.12% from the previous day.
On the previous day, Gigavis announced that it had obtained a patent for "Automatic Setting of Optimal Scan Range in a Focus-Change-Based 3D Measuring Device." This patent can be applied to Gigavis's core AOR equipment to analyze damage in three dimensions after defect repair. In the future, 3D measuring devices can also be installed in AOI and VRS, indicating significant technological scalability.
The AOR equipment allows substrates with defective circuits to be reused as good products instead of being discarded, dramatically improving product yield. AOR is a highly advanced technology that is very difficult to develop, and globally, only two companies including Gigavis can manufacture this equipment.
Kang Hae-cheol, CEO of Gigavis, explained, "With the patent registration of the focus-change-based 3D measurement method, which is essential for accurate shape analysis in areas densely packed with fine patterns, we have secured core technology protection and enhanced the technological competitiveness of our 3D measuring devices."
Gigavis was listed on the KOSDAQ market last month. It is a leading company in the semiconductor substrate post-process inspection field, driven by advanced technological leadership.
