Used RUDOLPH IV-Hg #131674 for sale

RUDOLPH IV-Hg is an advanced ellipsometer which can be used to measure the optical properties of materials with nanometric accuracy. It works by illuminating the surfaces of samples with a specially designed rotating polarizer, producing a polarized beam of light. The reflected light is then passed through a analyzer that measures the polarization state of the light. The data collected is then used to calculate the optical constants and/or optical thickness of the sample. IV-Hg has a number of advantages over other technologically advanced ellipsometers. It operates at a much higher speed than most, allowing for more precise measurements in a shorter amount of time. Additionally, its data collection and analysis software are user- friendly, making the setup and measurement process more efficient. The device utilizes advanced near-field detectors, which allow it to measure samples that are too thin to be measured using conventional ellipsometers due to light being reflected off the material surface instead of going through the material itself. This makes RUDOLPH IV-Hg perfect for measuring thin films or other materials with small scattering diameter. Aside from its precision, IV-Hg also offers a great degree of flexibility. It can measure a broad range of wavelengths, allowing it to collect data spanning a wide range of polar angles and angles of incidence. Furthermore, the adjustable sample stage makes it possible to measure samples at an angle and adjust the angle as required. RUDOLPH IV-Hg is considered one of the most advanced and precise ellipsometers on the market, able to measure a wide range of samples with nanometric accuracy. Its near-field detectors, high-speed measurements, adjustable sample stage and user-friendly software make it an ideal instrument for precise ellipsometric measurements.
