In addition to femtosecond laser micromachining, Clark-MXR maintains a suite of calibrated inspection tools, including scanning electron microscopes and 3D laser scanning microscopy. Many of these tools are kept in a cleanroom environment, and daily verification ensures our SEM calibrations meet the highest gauging standards, with feature measurements down to a few nanometers.
Measurement and imaging equipment
- Scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) – high-magnification imaging for detailed surface and structural analysis
- High-resolution optical microscopes – crisp, detailed imaging for optical inspection
- 3D laser confocal microscopes – precise depth mapping and surface characterization
- Vision measurement systems (VMS) – automated, high-accuracy dimensional verification
- Coordinate measuring machines (CMM) – precise 3D measurements of complex geometries
Sectioning and 3D analysis
Pairing femtosecond laser micromachining with microscopy and spectroscopy enables advanced material analysis:
- Serial sectioning – layer-by-layer milling to reconstruct three-dimensional structures at the nanoscale
- 3D tomography – reveal volumetric material properties for research and quality control
Cleaning and cleanroom packaging
Our on-site Class 100 (ISO 5) cleanroom contains multiple ultrasonic cleaning stations, a plasma cleaner, inspection equipment and packaging tools, and is accessible only to specially trained personnel. Standard cleanroom protocols, including routine cleaning and maintenance, are closely monitored, and a dedicated particle counter validates that we maintain those standards.
