PROFILE |
 |
Zygo sees the little picture. The company makes precision quality control equipment, including electro-optical measuring instruments, automation systems, and optical components. One of its main products is the interferometer, which measures surface shape, roughness, and other characteristics by means of two light beams ("zygo" is Greek for "pair"). 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. Canon, Zygo's largest customer (19% of sales), owns 8.5% of the company.
