摘要
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to study a variety of surface effects present in embossed structures, thin film coatings, and polymeric substrates. Comparisons between scanning electron microscopy (SEM), optical microscopy and stylus methods of characterizing surface morphology show that AFM reveals information in three-dimensional format not previously available.
