Helios-r8: Coating control of poly-Si coating on TOPCon solar wafers
The Helios-r8 systems are specifically designed for controlling poly-Si coatings on the rear side of TOPCon solar wafers. They provide precise measurements of layer thickness and optical constants (n&k), which are essential for ensuring high-quality selective backside passivation contacts.
The INLINE-r8 system is optimized for high-speed measurements on moving wafers within production environments. It remains stable and accurate even with fluctuations in wafer rotation, distance, or tilt – making it highly reliable for inline quality control.
The OFFLINE-r8 configurations deliver precise measurements for both production and laboratory use. They feature integrated reference samples and offer either motorized scanning (SCAN-r8) or manual operation (LAB-r8), supporting process development and detailed sample inspection.
Helios-tn: Control of coating processes on silicon-based solar wafers
The Helios-tn systems are ideally suited for monitoring and controlling coating processes on silicon-based solar wafers. They offer highly precise measurements of layer thickness and optical constants (n&k) across single and multiple layers, with the ability to measure 2 – 3 parameters simultaneously.
The INLINE-tn system is designed for real-time measurements within production environments. It features tunable optics that adapt to the surface structures of the wafers, ensuring consistent and accurate inline performance.
The OFFLINE-tn systems provide flexibility for research, process development, and sample inspection.
These configurations include motorized x-y mapping (SCAN-tn) or manual operation (LAB-tn) for detailed analysis of wafer surfaces.
Helios-rc: Control of the texturing and etching processes of solar wafers
Helios-rc systems are designed for precise monitoring and control of texturing and etching processes on solar wafers. These systems measure the total reflectance of the textured front side and the spatial angle reflectance of the back side of the wafer to ensure optimal surface treatment. Additionally, they can measure the thickness of thin layers on either the front or back of the wafer, supporting comprehensive surface analysis.
The INLINE-rc system is built for seamless integration
into production environments. It supports measurements on moving wafers, features adjustable working distances, and includes motorized reference samples to ensure accuracy and repeatability during continuous operation.
The OFFLINE-rc systems are ideal for sample inspection and process development. Configurations include motorized
scanning (SCAN-rc) and manual operation (LAB-rc), both equipped with integrated reference standards to ensure long-term measurement stability.
Volta INLINE IL-D / IL-W: Control dry or wet films without referencing
The Volta INLINE IL-W continuously measures the wet film thickness of insulation layers in the electrode production of lithium batteries directly after wet film application. It measures wet films without the need for referencing, making it very easy to integrate.
The system can be configured with multiple measuring heads, each head either static or motorized scanning. For optimal measurement quality and installation flexibility, mechanical fine adjusters enable manual adjustment of the position, working distance and inclination when installing the measuring heads.
The motorized scanning measuring head enables profile scans of the insulating layer and the measurement of two adjacent coating strips with a single head using a swivel motion.
