About Wooptix

Wooptix is an innovative company in semiconductor wafer metrology that offers the fastest and most accurate inline measurements, with the highest lateral resolution on the market. Thanks to the use of wavefront phase imaging (WFPI), a proprietary technique derived from adaptive optics research, its systems measure the shape, uniformity, nanotopography, and roughness of the entire wafer in a single image. It is currently deploying solutions for various customers in Asia, Europe, and North America.

In addition to their vibration resistance and ability to adapt to user needs, these systems are of great value for measuring wafer shape and nanotopography in a single capture.
