The Thin
Film Division
was created by combining the cumulative experience of Jobin Yvon in
optics with the expertise and almost twenty years experience of SOFIE
Instruments in thin film processing and plasma diagnostics.
By a process of continuous
collaboration with major semiconductor manufacturers, research
establishments and plasma processing equipment suppliers the Thin
Film Division has developed a wide range of instruments dedicated to advanced
thin film metrology
such as Ellipsometry, Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) and
Interferometry, covered by two product lines : Ellipsometry and
Process Control.

Our instruments are
manufactured under a strict quality assurance program with the aim to
satisfy customer needs by the highest level of performance.
Jobin Yvon acquired the
licence for a Phase
Modulated Ellipsometer
developed in collaboration with CNRS laboratories (Anvar-Ecole
Polytechnique license).
In 1992 this collaboration won an Award for research-to-industry
technology transfer. Jobin Yvon Spectroscopic
Ellipsometers
provide the highest level of performance currently available with
continuous improvement in terms of hardware performance and analysis
software. Jobin Yvon also acquired the Plasmos Laser Ellipsometer
range from Philips Analytical in 2002.
