What it is

The KLA Prometrix UV 1050 is a thin film measurement tool. The tool uses broadband UV optics and dual beam spectrophotometry.[4][1][2][3][5]

How it works

The KLA Prometrix UV 1050 uses a broadband xenon arc lamp as its light source. The tool employs dual beam spectrophotometry to measure film thickness. The stage has a resolution of 0.25 µm in x-y and 0.025 µm in z. The system features automatic focus on the measurement site.[1][2][3][5]
