ZEISS Axio Imager Vario for Materials

Upright Microscope for Large Samples

Examine large samples – automated and clean room compatible

Analyze smallest MEMS sensors up to XXL wafer or even entire flat planel panel displays without destroying them. Thanks to the sample height of up to 254 mm and lateral space of up to 300 mm you examine the broadest range of samples with Axio Imager Vario. The column design offers high stability. Take control of your wafer in the clean room. A motorized z-drive in addition with the hardware auto focus ensure the automatic setting of the optimum focus position.

Clean Room

The production of semiconductors and inspection of wafers you proceed in clean rooms. Clean rooms are classified according to DIN EN ISO 14644-1, differentiating by number and size of particles per m³. Axio Imager Vario is certified according to this standard and meets the requirements of clean room class 5. Clean room class ISO 5 is equivalent to class 100 of the former standard FED STD 209E (1992). Use the clean room kit, containing a 7x nosepiece turret, particle protection and sneeze guard.

Highlights

  • EProfit from the maximum sample height up to 254 mm and lateral sample space up to 300 mm x 300 mm. Choose between two manual and one motorized column with industry compliant 3-button-operation.
  • EAxio Imager Vario focuses with the nosepiece on the sample. That means that you can achieve high focusing accuracy and repeatability, especially with heavy samples.
  • EWith the Hardware Auto Focus you profit from precise, fast focusing of reflective samples, which are poor in contrast.
  • EWith Axio Imager Vario in combination with LSM 700 you analyze sensitive samples in high resolution without contact.
  • EAxio Imager Vario is certified according to DIN EN ISO 14644-1 and meets the requirements of clean room class 5.

Hardware Auto Focus

Combine your Axio Imager Vario with Hardware Auto Focus and profit from precise, fast focusing of reflective samples with a lock-in range of up to 12000 µm. You work with a focus system offering a high precision of 0.3 depth of focus of the objective. Use the auto focus for your applications in reflected light and transmitted light, in brightfield, darkfield, polarization contrast, differential interference contrast and oblique illumination.
