Description

The Dektak 3ST profilometer is a stylus-type surface profiler. It is equipped with a camera for locating the region of interest, manual sample manipulation & tilt correction, and profile analysis software. It can be used to get a rough idea of the topography of features by scanning a single line across the surface. Features as small as 100 nm in height can be determined with some approximation.
