Automated Multi-Site Wafer Imaging Now Available on Ergo

Upload your sites, hit “Start” and walk away. Ergo will not only scan each site automatically, but the Autopilot™ algorithm will optimize the scans for high quality and consistent results.

Intuitive, Easy to Use Nanoelectrical Workflow

Measure high-resolution, high-sensitivity electrical data with Scanning Capacitance Microscopy (SCM) and Conductive AFM (CAFM).

Auto AFM Calibration in Seconds

Ergo’s workflow guides you from loading a new probe to aligning the laser with a few clicks.  In the background, Asylum’s proprietary GetReal™ technology automatically calibrates the cantilever each time to help ensure the most consistent results from day-to-day.
