Jordan Valley Partners With Opendream To Penetrate Korean Semiconductor Market

Austin, TX - Jordan Valley has signed an agreement with OpenDream of Korea for sales and support of their x-ray metrology equipment to the Korean semiconductor marketplace.

"When you're introducing a new technology into the thin film metrology market," commented Sean Jameson, Jordan Valley's vice president, "there is another level of customer and market education that's required. We feel OpenDream is the exact fit we were looking for in Korea because of their unique expertise in metrology. In-line x-ray metrology solutions are often seen as disruptive to currently accepted measurement technologies, but OpenDream has a great track record of working with the large Korean semiconductor manufacturers with new, innovative solutions."

Besides their emphasis in film metrology, OpenDream also specializes in metal contamination, adhesion, wafer thickness and stress related products and processes. Company claims that they will provide sales, service and applications support for Jordan Valley; the agreement goes into effect immediately.
