FPM Series

Zygo 3D Large Area Optical Profilometry

Since acquiring this product line from Zygo Corporation in 2009, Display manufacturers have come to Toho for superior 3D feature analysis systems. Toho’s Zygo-FPM tools are non-contact metrology systems designed for flat panel display production applications featuring a wide range of capabilities and value. Toho Optical profilers are white light interferometer systems, offering fast, non-contact, high-precision 3D metrology of surface features. The FPM is a series specifically designed to inspect cellular flat panels or large displays requiring high-res analyses. The FPM series 3D optical surface profilers easily measure a wide range of surfaces, including smooth, rough, flat, sloped, and stepped surfaces.

Applications

Toho FPM Series tools are designed to provide accurate measurements within a vast array of applications.

FPM systems and their measurement data are used to improve production yield especially in, Color Filter, TFT process lines and ODF (One Drop Fill) processes. Height and width, area data of Photo Spacer and VA structure, Black Matrix, and Color Filter can be measured at one time with our proprietary OneShotTM system. SureShotTM provides Halftone process feature measurement such as film thickness and Critical Dimensions. DropShot TM also provides droplets volume and shape.
