Zygo sees the little picture. The company makes precision quality control equipment, including electro-optical measuring instruments, automation systems, and optical components.

Zygo's products are used to make semiconductors and data storage devices (62% of sales), and lasers used in nuclear fusion research. Customers include Canon (19% of sales), DuPont Photomasks, Leica, and Lucent. Nearly 60% of its sales come from the US. Kopp Investment Advisors owns 20% of Zygo.
