Description

The interferometric sensor series encompasses both white-light and near-infrared types, catering to a wide range of industrial measurement needs. White-light interferometric sensors utilize broadband light sources, significantly enhancing data acquisition capabilities; they enable high-precision thickness measurements over relatively long working distances and are suitable for optically non-dense objects such as thin layers, flat glass, and thin films. Near-infrared interferometric sensors are specifically designed for measuring the thickness of monocrystalline silicon wafers, silicon carbide wafers, and other transparent materials; leveraging Superluminescent Diode (SLED) technology, they are compatible with silicon wafers ranging from undoped to heavily doped. The entire series demonstrates exceptional stability across various measurement distances, offering a reliable and flexible solution for industrial thickness measurement.
