ZYGO Expands ZMI 500 Series of Stage Metrology Solutions.Business and High Tech Editors MIDDLEFIELD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 5, 2001 Zygo Corporation Zygo Corporation (NASDAQ: ZIGO)is a company that specializes in optical systems & equipment for areas such as optical metrology. Zygo's metrology systems are based on optical interferometry measuring displacement, surface figure, and optical wavefront. (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on : ZIGO) Zygo Corporation, the technology leader in Displacement Measuring Interferometry, announced today the introduction of the ZMI ZMI Zope Management Interface ZMI Zion Ministerial Institute 501 measurement electronics at Semicon Japan 2001. The ZMI 501 measurement electronics are designed to provide the step resolution required to meet the stage metrology needs for next generation semiconductor test instrumentation. "Displacement measuring interferometers improve stage position accuracy by measuring at the plane of interest and eliminating geometrical errors. The ZMI 501 builds on the success of ZYGO's ZMI 500 series of DMIs as an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and solution by providing enhanced system accuracy and throughput," stated Dan Musinski, product manager for ZYGO's Displacement Measuring Interferometers. "The ZMI 501 electronics offer the resolution, velocity, and flexible interface options required by our customer's that are developing next generation semiconductor instrumentation." The ZMI 501 electronics is an enhancement to ZYGO's successful ZMI 500 series of displacement interferometer interferometer: see interference under Interference as a Scientific Tool. See also virtual telescope. An instrument that measures the wavelengths of light and distances. products. The ZMI 501 has selectable linear position resolution to the nanometer level and the ability to track high target velocities. For ease of integration the ZMI 501 measurement electronics offers the metrology data in multiple formats. When combined with a ZYGO stage mirror a ZMI 500 series Displacement Measuring Interferometer system provides a complete Stage Metrology Solution.
