Micro-Lenses Quality control

Wafer level quality control of micro-lenses with manual loading

The precise measurement of the ROC (radius of curvature), conic constant, and the deviation from a perfect surface (RMS – Root Mean Square) of micro-lenses enables to fully characterize their geometry, ensuring their optical performance. Evaluating each micro lens of a wafer ensures its quality and uniformity and guarantees the proper functioning of the final devices..

Wafers contain tens of thousands of micro-lenses. Thanks to its unique speed, our DHM® overcomes the limitation of alternative instruments to characterize a sufficient number of lenses.

We present in this application our dedicated DHM system and user interface for wafer level quality control of micro lenses geometry.
