Infrared Optical Beam Induced Resistance Change (IR OBIRCH)

Infrared Optical Beam Induced Resistance Change (IR OBIRCH) (OB101) covers lectures on theories and application of emission microscopy techniques such as Photon Emission Microscopy, Thermal Emission Microscopy and Optical Beam Induced Resistance Change. This also involves hands-on operation of IR-OBIRCH. Practical tips based on actual experience of the resource speaker will be shared in the training.

Course Objectives

☑ Understand the principles behind IR OBIRCH and related emission microscopy techniques
☑ Learn the applications of Photon Emission, Thermal Emission, and OBIRCH in failure analysis
☑ Operate IR OBIRCH equipment through guided hands-on practice
☑ Gain practical insights from real-world experience shared by the resource speaker
