TeraProbes, Inc. and bsw TestSystems & Consulting formed a Collaborative Partnership to bring the innovative non-contact probing technology to researchers and practitioners in 6 countries in the European Union, including Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, The Netherlands, and Luxembourg.

Under the partnership, bsw TestSystems & Consulting will provide the sales and service support for TeraProbes, Inc.’s non-contact probe station line and will be the first point of contact in these 6 countries. “We are very excited to offer our products to the EU markets where we see clear and growing interest in the millimeter-wave and terahertz frequency applications. Our non-contact metrology approach eliminates key issues faced with on-waver device and integrated circuit characterization, and enables users to conduct accurate, reliable, and repeatable measurements at frequencies up to and beyond 1 terahertz. With our fully-automated system, users can even characterize entire wafers without any intervention.”, said Kubilay Sertel, President of TeraProbes, Inc.
