Characterizing microsystems' and MEMS' topography and dynamics
Using the versatile surface measurement systems from Polytec, you can complete your micro and nano technology tasks reliably, quickly and with a high level of precision. You can eject channel depths on your lab-on-a-chip, determine the step height on MEMS packaging, establish how flat pressure sensors are and analyze MEMS using surface parameters. Even performing dynamic out-of-plane and in-plane measurements on RF filters to determine MHz resonance frequencies will be a simple task for you now – thanks to Polytec’s MSA Micro System Analyzer series.
Optical profilers and vibrometers for micro- and nanotechnology

Macro Profiler
Pro.Surf systems enable fast, area-based 3D topography measurements with telecentric optics. They support reliable inspection of flatness, shape, parallelism and step heights across wide fields of view and in-bore features.

Micro Profiler
Micro.View systems are optimized for ultra-high-resolution measurements in the sub-nanometer range. With focused optics and high vertical resolution they enable detailed analysis of microstructures, surface finish and material distribution where even the smallest deviations matter.

Microscope-based vibrometers
Inspired by the rapid further development of microelectromechanical systems and MEMS, Polytec presents this highly innovative product line of microscope-based measurement systems. MSA Micr System Analyzers from Polytec validate dynamics and topography of microsystems reliably with utmost precision.
