GB/T 27788 Guidelines for calibration of magnification of scanning electron microscope images for microbeam analysis

GB/T 33376 Optical functional film terms and definitions

3 Terms and definitions

The terms and definitions defined in GB/T 33376 and the following apply to this document.

3.1

Original film and functional film with excellent optical properties for flat panel displays.

[Source. GB/T 33376-2016, 2.1.19, modified]

4 Principles

A sample is cut from the sample to be tested, and the cross section of the sample is ground, polished, etched, and ultra-thin sectioned. Use corrected

SEM measures cross-sectional thickness.

NOTE. Appendix A gives guidance.

5 Instruments and Equipment

5.1 SEM

The resolution should be less than 50nm.

5.2 SEM stage micrometer ruler

For the magnification used to calibrate the SEM, the error value of the uncertainty should be less than 5%.

6 Factors affecting measurement accuracy

6.1 Rough surface

If the cross-section of the sample or the surface of the substrate is rough, the interface line of the cross-section will be irregular, making it impossible to accurately measure the thickness.
