Computerized Knife-Edge Tomography (CKET)
Many new generation lasers, having a spectrum which is out of the sensitivity response of typical camera detectors require different technologies to be ex-amined. Tomographic knife-edge technology offers a feasible solution. Multiple knife-edges scanning from different directions provide beam profiles depen-dent on scanning angle. By reconstruction techniques used in tomography, an image-like profile can be reconstructed and analyzed. Various detectors are used to provide a wide spectral range measurement capability

Two Axis Differential Interferometer
10721A
The Keysight 10721A Two Axis Differential Interferometer, when used in multiple axis applications, simultaneously makes two differential measurements linear and angular (yaw) displacement. Both measurements reference external mirror mounted to an object such as a column or inspection tool. The 10721A provides high immunity to unwanted interferometer displacement, such as thermal expansion. It is a modular, compact design with monolithic optics for maximized mechanical stability. Use of a small 3 mm beam helps decrease Abb offset error. The 10721A is similar to the 10719A Single Axis Differential Interferometer, except that it provides an additional measurement axis.

Water Detection Sensor
EZ-10
Panasonic Industrial Devices Sales Company of America
The EX-10 is a special Thru-Beam Sensor that was designed for two purposes; to check fluid levels and to detect the level of liquids containing water. The emitter on the EX-10 Sensor uses a particularly strong IR beam to not only penetrate transparent, but also semitransparent or colored containers such as PFA packages or shampoo bottles. Also, the sensitivity of the Sensor is adjustable to allow it to focus on a target, such as distinguishing foam from liquid in drinks, as an example.

Pulse Characterization Sensors
Pulse Characterization Sensors provide the ability to see and measure the temporal characteristics of pulsed and CW laser beams. Ophir Fast Photodiode Detectors are designed to convert optical signals into electrical signals which are then measured with third-party instrumentation such as oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers. Accessories are available to connect to IS6 integrating spheres or fiber optic cables. Attenuating filter accessories are also available to increase their dynamic range. Different models offer silicon, UV enhanced silicon and InGaAs PIN photodiodes, covering a combined spectral range of 193 nm to 1700 nm. Rise times range from 25 picoseconds to 3 nanoseconds. The fast rise times are achieved by an internal reverse bias voltage circuit. Power is supplied by internal batteries and/or an external power supply depending on the model. Detectors should be connected to a 50Ω impedance in order to maintain their nominal rise times. They can be connected to higher impedance loads, but this will result in a significant increase in the rise time. If higher output voltage is required, it is recommended to connect the detector to a trans-impedance amplifier with an Input impedance of 50Ω

XRF
M Series
The M Series is the ultimate in high performance for the smallest x-ray spot sizes. The poly-capillary optics in the M Series is more advanced than the O Series, focusing the x-ray beam down to 15μm FWHM. To measure features on that scale, a 150x magnification camera is included. The field of view becomes more limited with higher magnification, so a second camera takes a macro-image of the part to be measured. The dual-camera system allows operators to see the entire part, click the image to zoom in with the high-mag camera, and pinpoint the feature to be measured.

Trace VOC Analyzer
PTR-TOF 6000 X2
The new PTR-TOF 6000 X2 is our premium PTR-TOF trace VOC analyzer. We conceived a unique system comprising of a novel high-resolution TOF and IONICON’s PTR technology with the new “X2” features, for the ultimate PTR-TOFMS experience. X2 combines the latest generation of performance enhancing tools incl. the ION-BOOSTER funnel as well as the hexapole ION-GUIDE. The ion funnel focuses the ions into the hexapole ion guide which results in nearly lossless transmission of an extremely focused ion beam into the TOF mass spectrometer. This increases the sensitivity dramatically and also improves the instrument’s mass resolving power. Utmost resolution, sensitivity and lowest real-time detection limit are now available in a robust, transportable platform that is smaller and lighter than previous products.

Dopant
In semiconductor manufacturing, electrical performance starts with atomic-level control. Dopant technologies make that possible by introducing carefully measured doping constituents that help devices conduct, switch and perform reliably. For precise control of fluxes for Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) dopant constituents, or for gases that do not require thermal cracking, Veeco’s Dopant products are ideal.

Long Light Source
LM-A
The long light source is compatible with the LM-101 or the LMC-20. The light is supplied with a 50 watt tungsten halogen convection cooled light source which provides suffcient energy for use with narrow band pass filters or monochronomators in the wave length range of .35 to 2.5 microns. The light beam is chopped at 200 hz by a quiet, vibration free, synchronous motor. The housing also contains a secondary LED light source and detector for synchronization of the amplifier, plus an electro-mechanical shutter to block the light output when the instrument is zeroed. An internal collimating lens produces a narrow beam (<1") so the LM-A can be used in bell-jar and large coating systems.
