Filmetrics® Profilm3D® Optical Profilometer
The Profilm3D® benchtop optical profiler utilizes white light interferometry, TotalFocus? infinite depth-of-field imaging, or Enhanced Roughness Mode to provide easy, non-contact measurement of 3D step heights, roughness, and other surface topography.
Zeta?-Solar Metallization Optical Profiler
The new Zeta-Solar non-contact optical profiler is a metrology tool designed for measuring 3D topography for advanced metallization finger, busbar and pad solar processes. A large sample stage and automated analysis recipes with pass/fail criteria make the Zeta-Solar ideal for end-of-the-line solar process development and process quality control.
Zeta?-20 Optical Profiler
The Zeta-20 benchtop 3D non-contact optical profilometer features patented ZDot? technology and flexible multi-mode optics for measurement of 3D surface topography, film thickness and automated defect inspection. The High Resolution HR configuration is designed specifically for advanced solar applications.
Zeta?-300 Optical Profiler
Building upon the proven performance of the Zeta-20, the Zeta-300 non-contact 3D optical profiler includes integrated vibration isolation and support for larger sample sizes to meet your R&D and production requirements. The non-contact profilometer integrates six different optical metrology technologies in one configurable and easy-to-use system.
Zeta?-388 Optical Profiler
The Zeta-388 3D surface topography measurement system combines the Zeta-300 non-contact 3D optical profiler system with a cassette-to-cassette wafer handler, pattern recognition, automated data analysis and SECS/GEM to support production measurement requirements.
