Facts
The Tencor profilometer is a long scan profilometer that is capable of measuring step heights, stress, surface roughness by moving a stylus over a defined step in the film to be measured.
Film stress can be determined by measuring the difference in wafer curvature before and after a film is deposited.

Pieces to 8 inch wafers.
Total step height 100 Å to 300µm with various resolutions (1A at 10um scale)
Scan length up to 200 mm.
Stylus radius is 12 microns
