Our unique strobe & stitch mode provides unrivalled lateral pixel resolution for measuring 4D topography and sample vibrations. This mode is particularly useful when:
Vibration stitching over multiple fields of view is actually more accurate and reliable than in the general case of stitching topography images. Indeed, the imperfections of the stage are a static components that are automatically subtracted when the vibrations are extracted from the topography. There is no “tilp/tip” correction to be made or calibrated on each image.
A strobe & stitch application is illustrated here below with the measurement of a 5 mm diameter quartz oscillator. The vibrations amplitude versus time and the vibrations amplitude maps are the result of a stitching over 5×5 individual measurements, each performed using a 5x objective. Each measurement has a pixel resolution of 25 Megapixels.
