Our patented coherent laser illumination source is designed to meet the needs of today’s photoemission microscopes as well as backside imaging stations.

In standard configuration with laser wavelengths at 660nm, 1064nm and 1300nm, you have the immediate flexibility to illuminate just the topside or silicon surface and then switch to 1064nm (or 1300nm if you have a longer wavelength sensitive camera) for crisp high contrast backside imaging. Produces superior backside images through the silicon with phase-blended laser illumination.

           100X NIR with Standard bulb Illuminator                   100X NIR with ULTRASPEC-III coherent laser illumination

You wouldn’t limit your expensive emission microscope with improper optics so why limit it with improper illumination? Note how the monochromatic source brings out diffraction limited details in the backside image (below). No chromatic aberration and is compatible with many oil immersion objectives.
