The Bruker Contour GTX is a White Light Interferometer (WLI). The Bruker Contour GTX uses white light interferometry for surface measurement.[1]
What it is
The Bruker Contour GTX is a white light interferometer (WLI) manufactured by Bruker.[1]
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedWhite light interferometers are used in semiconductor fabrication for in-line metrology after chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) to measure dishing and erosion. The instruments also measure thin-film thickness, step heights, and surface roughness on patterned wafers. In optics manufacturing, white light interferometers characterize surface figure and roughness of lenses, mirrors, and prisms.
Applications
General reference — not yet source-verifiedApplications of white light interferometry include measuring surface roughness, step heights, film thickness, and defect dimensions on semiconductor wafers, MEMS devices, and precision optics. The technique is non-destructive and can handle transparent films and steep slopes.
