TOKYO — Rigaku Corporation, a group company of Rigaku Holdings and a global solutions partner for X-ray analytical systems (Head Office: Akishima, Tokyo; President and CEO: Jun Kawakami; “Rigaku”), and Tohoku University (Sendai, Miyagi; President: Teiji Tominaga; “Tohoku University”) have established the Rigaku-Tohoku University Co-Creation Research Institute for X-ray Metrology: Beyond The…

Rigaku Corporation, a global solutions partner for X-ray analytical systems, and Tohoku University have collaborated to establish the Rigaku-Tohoku University Co-Creation Research Institute for X-ray Metrology. The Institute, located at Tohoku University, aims to advance X-ray metrology technology and foster the next generation of researchers through a three-year partnership.

As semiconductors become smaller and more complex, X-ray metrology technology is crucial for precise, non-destructive analysis in manufacturing. However, conventional techniques are reaching their limits, necessitating new methodologies and stronger capabilities. The Institute will focus on three key goals: advancing X-ray metrology technology, promoting collaborative research across various fields, and training and supporting next-generation researchers and engineers.

Through initiatives like the Rigaku Scholarship System, the Institute seeks to cultivate professionals capable of contributing to both industry and academia.
