Non-Contact 3D Optical Metrology


The Zygo NewView 200 is an optical instrument that creates high-resolution, three-dimensional maps of surfaces without touching them. It uses light to measure surface features down to the nanometer scale. This is essential for companies that need to ensure precision and quality in their products.

This device is not a simple microscope or profilometer. It combines the strengths of both to give you detailed images and exact measurements. Its main purpose is to measure surface topography when the shape of a surface directly affects how a product performs and lasts. This applies to a wide range of fields, from microelectronics to precision parts.

Zygo NewView
What It Does

Mapping Roughness

Answers the fundamental question "How smooth is this part, really?" It is critical from ensuring an optical lens won't scatter light to verify that a bearing surface will have a long service life.

Checking Step Heights

In microelectronics and MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems), the height of a layer on a microchip can be as important as its width. This device can accurately measure these tiny vertical steps.

Inspecting Flatness

This instrument can map the flatness of a part's surface with incredible accuracy so that components fit together perfectly and function as designed.

Expert Calibration for the Zygo NewView 200


Your Zygo NewView 200 is a cornerstone of your quality and research, providing critical data through non-contact surface metrology. Like any precision optical profiler, its performance relies on periodic, expert calibration to counteract measurement drift. Our process goes beyond a simple check; we meticulously verify stage accuracy and optical system alignment and ensure vertical scanning measurements (z-axis) are traceable to recognized standards. This guarantees your instrument's data is not just repeatable but truly accurate.

Coherence Scanning Interferometry (CSI)


The NewView 200 operates on Coherence Scanning Interferometry (CSI), a non-contact optical method for 3D surface profiling. This process precisely measures surface topography at the nanometer scale. Here's how it works:

Light Splitting

A white light beam is split; one part reflects off a reference mirror, the other off the sample surface.

Interference

The two reflected beams recombine, creating interference patterns that reveal surface height differences.

Scanning

The system moves vertically, capturing interference data at various depths to construct a comprehensive 3D surface profile.

Sub-nm Resolution

Detects atomic-scale features, enabling precise measurements like 0.1 nm roughness.

Vibration Resistance

SureScan™ technology minimizes measurement noise from environmental vibrations.

Transparent Films

Capable of measuring layers beneath surfaces, such as those found in OLED displays.
