Buying Optical Profilometers

Top-level product categories: detectors and measurements, manufacturing equipment, applications, optical components and devices

More general product categories: optical surface characterization equipment, optical metrology equipment

Related product categories: optics characterization equipment, interferometers

Optical profilometers (surface profilers) precisely measure surface height profiles, such as surface roughness, scratches, and optical surface finish. They use interferometric and other methods, achieving sub-micron resolution. Applications include optical metrology, optics fabrication, semiconductor inspection, and thin film production.
