Flexible
Optical Sensor
The PLu 2300 is an optical profiler, on which flexibility
can hardly be beaten by any other system. Without any moving
image scanning parts, this measuring head can be adapted to
a column, a robot arm or other machines and it enables to measure
at various kinds of positions, non reachable by standard laboratory
setups.
A personal computer or notebook is used for image processing,
control and data acquisition of is optical measurement instrument Plu 2300.

Multiple Technique: Confocal and Interference
It is now possible to switch between standard light microscope
and an optical profiler with both interferential and confocal
technologies, using a simple software switch button. This
optical profiler instrument combines all advantages of these two techniques without
limitation to the capabilities of one technique.

No limitation of sample size
The PLu 2300 compact, light and robust design does not
have any limitations due to sample size. Adapt the sensor
to any-size-stand you need, and measure large fields of view
with the fully automated extended topography and extended
profile capabilities of the PLu series software.

Multiple Objective Options
The EPI objective series have short working distances and
high numerical apertures, thus providing the high accuracy
and performance of the optical measurement instrument. These objectives are
specially suited for smooth and flat samples such as MEMs
and ICs and for surfaces with steep local slopes, such as
microlenses. The Super Long Working Distance (SLWD) series
are ideal for the measurement of high aspect ratio structures,
steeply sloping samples and large steps. The Extra Long Working
Distance (ELWD) series are a halfway solution for the PLu 2300.

Advantages of the PLu Confocal Technology
Repeatability figures better than 5nm, the highest achievable
lateral resolution by a white light optical profiler (spatial
sampling of 0.18 µm), steep slopes on smooth surfaces
(up to 51º) and step height measurements made on dissimilar
materials are some of the advantages of confocal technology,
which in combination with the compatibility to interference
techniques provide a unique wide spectrum of applications for an optical measurement instrument.

Advantages of the Interference Technology
Vertical resolution down to 0.1nm is also possible for the
smoothest surfaces. By a simple software switch button and
using interferometry objectives, the PLu is ready to
offer the advantages of the Interferometry.
