Lambda Photometrics now provide a comprehensive range of equipment and measurement services for thin film characterisation and refractive index determination.
Click here for more information.
Metricon’s 2010/M instrument measures thickness and refractive index of thin films (~0.4 to 50 microns) using a prism coupling technique. It can also measure bulk refractive index at a number of specific laser wavelengths to yield Abbe Number and dispersion information. In addition measurement of liquids, polymers, waveguide loss, dual films and many more sample types is possible. For more information click here.
SemiconSoft’s MProbe system measures the thickness of single and multilayer translucent film stacks. It is uses a non-contact spectroscopic technique and can be configured to measure layer thicknesses from 1nm to 1mm. Powerful multilayer thin film software is supplied with each system allowing complete modelling and measurement flexibility. Laboratory, at-line and on-line measurement solutions can all be developed with the same equipment. For more information click here.
From M³ Measurement Solutions, we offer a measurement service for characterising refractive index, dispersion and dn/dT of optical materials.
This service is particularly useful for manufacturers of optical glasses, chalcogenide glasses, crystals and plastics as well as manufacturers and designers of optical components and systems. Accurate knowledge of these critical parameters can be the key to an optical system performing well in a real world environment. For more information click here.
We have demonstration Metricon and SemiconSoft systems available for evaluation, so please contact us for solutions to your Thin Film Thickness and Refractive Index measurement needs.

Zemetrics, Inc., a Zygo Corporation company, introduces the ZeGage™ non-contact optical profiler for quantitative shop floor measurements of 3D form and roughness on precision machined surfaces.
The ZeGage™ profiler eliminates the need for vibration isolation or specialized enclosures, resulting in footprint reduction, cost savings and increased ease of use. The industry-ready design produces fast, accurate metrology in a compact, cost-effective package. The ZeGage™'s proprietary SureScan™ technology enables high precision non-contact surface metrology while providing fast and accurate measurements in vibration-prone factory floor production environments.
Additionally, the ZeGage™ profiler offers an easy to use through-the-lens focus aid for rapid part setup, and a heavy-duty sample stage with standard T-slots for part fixturing and optimal gauge-capable metrology. System versatility and areal measurements are enhanced with a wide range of field-of-view options, including manual or motorized turret options for mounting multiple objective lenses. A standard high-resolution 1 million pixel image sensor provides excellent surface detail and visualization.
Windows® 7 64 bit-based ZeMaps™ analysis software, included with the ZeGage™ profiler, provides extensive 2D and 3D data analysis including form, step-height, and ISO/DIS 25178 compliant surface roughness parameters. ZeMaps™ interactive visualization tools enable fast, easy and thorough process characterization for a wide variety of surface metrology applications.
Commenting on the ZeGage™ profiler functionality, John Roth, Zygo’s Director, Profiler Marketing, said “The ZeGage™ profiler is a major advance in 3D optical metrology, delivering performance, price and productivity to a wide range of industries, enabling the transition from contact, 2D instruments to the next-generation of affordable non-contact, 3D instruments. This system offers superior ease-of-use, speed, repeatability and accuracy, without surface contact or concern for environmental vibrations. With these unique advantages, the ZeGage™ profiler outperforms incumbent and competing technologies such as mechanical stylus profilometers.”
With applications in industrial manufacturing, R&D, quality inspection, failure analysis and more, the ZeGage™ profiler provides advanced surface metrology for control of precision machining and micro-moulding processes across a wide range of industries, including automotive, medical and consumer electronics.

Lambda Photometrics is pleased to be offering the unique measuring services of M³ Measurement Solutions
M³ Measurement Solutions provide measurement services for materials used for near to far infrared applications as well as down to the UV. They provide Refractive Index and Dispersions measurement services. They also provide RI as a function of temperature down to cryogenic temperatures to give dn/dT data. Optical materials which can benefit from such measurements include Silicon, Germanium, Zinc Sulphide, and Zinc Selenide as well as Chalcogenide glasses.
Through the combination of high-end precision technology and intelligent software design, M³ (M Cubed) optics metrology department now offers the following measurements:
Tests
All of M³ instruments are calibrated and NIST traceable. M³ are currently in process of performing validation measurements with a SRM (Standard Reference Material) from NIST.
Measurement Ranges
M³ provides refractive index measurements at wavelengths from 350nm to 14um, and temperature ranges from 77°K to +100°C (373°K).
Measurement Method
Refractive index is measured via a modified minimum deviation technique. In utilizing this technique, a small prism must be manufactured from the material under test. M³ can sub-contract the prism manufacture or work with customers who wish to supply the finished prism substrate themselves.
Data
M³ can provide data in many different formats depending on your specific needs. M³ can supply various types of curve fitting and dispersion algorithms (e.g. Herzberger, Schott, Sellmeier etc). Full reports can be provided in Power Point, Word, PDF, and Excel formats.
Accuracies
M³ can reach accuracies to the fourth and fifth decimal place depending on material type and sample configuration.
To discuss your measurement requirements please contact Matthew Ball or Ken Middleton on 01582 764334.
