SPECTROview : A Tool for Spectroscopic Data Processing and Visualization.

Spectroscopy techniques such as Raman Spectroscopy and Photoluminescence (PL) are widely used in various fields, including materials science, chemistry, biology, and geology. In recent years, these techniques have increasingly found their place in cleanroom environments, particularly within the microelectronics industry, where they serve as critical metrology tools for wafer-scale measurements. The data collected from these in-line measurements (wafer data) require specific processing, but existing software solutions are often not optimized for this type of data and typically lack advanced plotting and visualization capabilities. Additionally, the licensing requirements of these software solutions can restrict access for a broader community of users.

SPECTROview addresses these gap by offering free, open-source software that is compataible with both in-line data (wafer-map) as well as standard spectroscopic data (discret spectra, 2D maps). It also features a built-in visualization tool, enabling users to streamline both data processing and visualization in a single application, making the workflow more efficient.

Features:

• Cross-platform compatibility (Windows, macOS, Linux).
• Supports processing of spectral data (1D) and hyperspectral data (2D maps or wafer maps)*.
• Ability to fit multiple spectra or 2Dmaps using predefined models or by creating custom fit models*.
• Collect all best-fit results with one click.
• Optimized user inferface for easy and quick inspection and comparison of spectra.
• Dedicated module for effortless, fast, and easy data visualization.

*Fitting features are powered by the fitspy and lmfit open-source packages.
