CLEAN ROOM STYLUS PROFILERS
Stylus Nano Profiler NS200
The Stylus Nano Profiler NS200 is an ultra-precision contact measuring instrument for measuring surface roughness and microscopic profiles, such as micro-nano step height and film thickness. The NS200 utilizes a displacement sensor with sub-bangstrom resolution, ultra-low noise signal acquisition, ultra-fine motion control, and calibration algorithm technology for outstanding performance.
Its contact force is extremely low and it requires no special equipment to measure surface reflection characteristics, material types, or hardness. Therefore, it is widely used for measuring microscopic surfaces in the semiconductor and compound semiconductor industries, high-brightness LEDs, solar energy, MEMS microelectromechanical systems, touchscreens, automotive, and medical equipment.
