Chipmaking tool firm Nearfield Instruments raises $380 million at $1.6 billion valuation

Nearfield Instruments, a Netherlands-based firm whose machines help measure the features on ‌advanced semiconductors, said on Monday it raised $380 million in ‌new funding, bringing its valuation to $1.6 billion. Nearfield makes devices called atomic force microscopes, ​which can take direct measurements of features of chips that are only a few atoms tall by dragging a probe across their surface, similar to how a needle moves across a vinyl record. Those ‌measurements are taken periodically ⁠during the hundreds of steps to make a chip to ensure that the manufacturing process is on ⁠track, a field called semiconductor metrology, which is dominated by KLA Corp.
