What it is

The Wyko NT8000 is an optical profiler.^[2]^[3]^[1]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Optical profilers operate by splitting a light beam into a reference path and a measurement path. The measurement beam is directed onto the sample surface, and the reflected light recombines with the reference beam to create interference fringes. By scanning the objective lens vertically, the system captures a series of interferograms from which surface height information is extracted at each pixel.
