"Ultrasonic Measurements of Surface Roughness"

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

We describe the use of pulsed ultrasound at MHz carrier frequencies to reflect and scatter from rough surfaces in an analogous way that light is used, comparing the results to stylus data. A principal application is to the manufacturing environment for on-line real-time sensor feedback and process control.
