Distribution of zero crossings for the profile of random rough surfaces

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The distribution of zero crossings for the profile of a statistically rough surface of a silver thin film is determined and compared with a Poisson distribution. It is shown that the density of zero crossings may be related to the autocorrelation length and might be a useful parameter for characterizing spatial information of statistically rough surfaces.
