Printer-friendly versionPDF version

Sunrise Optical LLC Solar Cell Metrology Tool Manufacturer has added a new 3rd generation Zebra OptoProfiler G3 to its product and services family.

The Zebra OptoProfiler is a user-friendly solution for solar cell topography and stress measurements.

Zebra OptoProfiler is capable of measuring rough structured, painted, and diffuse reflective surfaces commonly encountered in solar cell manufacturing. It has capability to measure your solar cells at virtually every step of the manufacturing process. Range of bow measured exceeds 10 mm, and does not depend on wafer diameter, while providing accuracy and reproducibility exceeding 10 sigma of typical multi-crystalline solar cell manufacturing process window.

Tool has capability to calculate variety of wafer topography parameters such as bow and warp. The stress tensor calculation capability is also provided as optional software upgrade. The Data collected by Zebra OptoProfiler can be exported in raw point cloud format for display and analysis using popular third party stress and design packages.

Product Features
- Measures wafers from 4-12 inch diameter
- Easy user friendly interface, no special operator training required
- Measures rough, weakly reflective surfaces
- Provides output files in point cloud format

Product Availability

Sample measurement service is now available. Lead-time for tool is currently 4 to 8 weeks ARO.
