Ellipsometer

The Nanofilm EP3-SE is a high-precision, auto-nulling spectroscopic imaging ellipsometer in the PCSA configuration.  The EP3-SE can achieve ellipsometric resolution of up to Δ ± 0.002 deg / Ψ ± 0.001 deg and accuracy of ± 0.1 deg.  Its motorized goniometer has an angle of incidence range of 40-90 degrees.  The EP3-SE is equipped with a Xenon arc lamp, allowing spectroscopic ellipsometric scanning from 365-1000 nm at 46 wavelengths—a useful capability for the determination of optical properties for complex films and stacks.  Additionally, a CCD camera allows for the capture of optical and ellipsometric images.

Key features:

• high precision
• superior spatial resolution (down to 1 µm)
• large area imaging ellipsometry up to several square centimeters
• single or multiple laser wavelengths
• motorized goniometer for angle-of-incidence (AoI) adjustment
• multiple Regions-of-Interest (ROI)
• Δ and Ψ mapping
