As pixel sizes and the number of pixels continue to increase, CMOS image sensor manufacturers have significant challenges in driving improvement in picture quality. One of the main problems with picture quality is the existence of dark current or leakage current. Using PLAD for sidewall doping of the trench structures on CMOS image sensors has been shown to reduce dark current. Customers have also seen improvement in picture quality from additional new PLAD applications.
We also have an opportunity to drive further penetration of our VIISta beam line products into the CMOS image sensor market. One of our largest customers in FY '09 is a Japanese CMOS image sensor account where we have significant penetration in high current and high energy.
