Large Area Scanning Probe Microscope for Micro-textured Surfaces

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Advanced Manufacturing ((SSAM,volume 0))

Abstract

Large area three-dimensional (3D) micro-structured surfaces can be found in holograms, diffractive optical elements (DOEs) and anti-reflective films, etc. [1]. A large number of the surfaces are composed of periodical micro-structures with a small structure width (in the X- and Y-directions) from several microns to several tens microns. Most of the surfaces are required to be fabricated accurately over an area lager than several millimeters.
