Microstructure characterization by angle-resolved scatter and comparison to measurements made by other techniques

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The theory and measurement of angle-resolved scatter are described. Values of rms roughness that were obtained by using this technique to characterize four different materials are compared with values that were obtained by using a total integrated scatter measuring instrument, an optical profiler, and a mechanical profiler. The spatial frequency bandwidths and modulation transfer functions of the four instruments are different, and results are described in light of these differences.
