Overview
Rave Scientific offers the new and innovative Micro-Tec individual graticule calibration standards which have been designed using an ultra-flat conductive silicon substrate with corrosion resistant Cr lines. They are manufactured utilizing the latest semiconductor manufacturing techniques. The Micro-Tec graticule calibration standards provide high contrast images for ease of calibration. Each of the calibration standards has a unique product ID and serial number etched on the die. Each of the Micro-Tec graticule calibration standard is fully NIST traceable and are supplied with a certificate of traceability. The Micro-Tec graticule calibration standards are ideally suited for:
The Micro-Tec family of silicon based graticules for bright-field applications consists of:
The deposited Cr lines are in the same focus plane as the substrate, better defined and provide more signal than etched patterns. They are also less prone to accumulate dust particles in the patterns.
