Luminescent provides the world's most advanced lithography enhancement solutions to the global semiconductor industry. Our groundbreaking Inverse Lithography Technology (ILT) addresses the most pressing issues facing semiconductor manufacturers today: smaller process windows, increasing design constraints, and longer turnaround times resulting from ever smaller sub-wavelength features.

Luminescent has pioneered the commercial development of ILT. Unlike optimal-proximity correction (OPC) approaches that find narrowly acceptable mask patterns using incomplete heuristics, ILT uses sophisticated mathematical methods to rigorously solve for the optimal photomask. The result: precise on-wafer pattern fidelity, wider process windows, shorter time to silicon, accelerated yield ramps, superior design tolerance and favorable IC economics.

At Luminescent, we're enabling lithography technology. Discover the possibilities.
