Investigation of the metrological characteristics of a scanning probe measuring microscope using TGZ type calibration gratings

  • Optophysical Measurements
  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

The structure and operating principle of the NanoSkan-3Di scanning probe microscope are briefly described. An investigation of the metrological characteristics of this measuring system using linear TGZ-type gratings demonstrated the high level of reproducibility of the measurements and showed that the results agree with the data obtained in a calibration at the PTB (Germany).
