A test object with three certified linewidth dimensions for a scanning electron microscope

  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

A test object for a scanning electron microscope, which has a trapezoidal profile of the relief with large angles of inclination of the side walls, is developed. The test object contains elements (protrusions) with three certified dimensions of the linewidth, situated in two mutually perpendicular directions.
