There are requirement of surface roughness in mechanical elements that has minute surface of several nm degree. When high precision surface roughness measurement is made with stylus type surface roughness measuring apparatus, measuring accuracy depend on the tip radius of diamond stylus. Therefore, ultra precision machining was accomplished using ion sputter machining in order to machining the stylus tip radius less than 0.5.mu.m, which is impossible through lapping machining. In this study, optimal machining condition for the ion sputter machining was obtained through the experiment under the various varing machinbing quantity and condition of diamond stylus. And as the result of applying this optimal condition, the good result was obtained that machining probability of stylus tip radius less than o.5.mu.m is 93%.

A picosecond transient absorption kinetic spectrometer using a pump-probe method is presented and compared with other methods of picosecond transient absorption measurements. This constructed kinetic spectrometer detects the transient transmittance of sample using a lock-in amplifier as a function of delay time between pump and probe pulses generated from a picosecond mode-locked cw dye laser. Typical transient absorption and ground state bleach recovery kinetic profiles measured with this spectrometer are shown. Excellent kinetic curves of transient absorption or ground state bleach recovery may be obtained at single wavelengths with this spectrometer.

산업기술의 발달에 따라 각 분야마다 정밀한 부품을 요구하고 있다. 이는 이들 부품이 시스템의 성능에 영향을 미치고 있기 때문이다. 부품의 정도는 길이정도와 표면의 정도를 모두 의미한다. 길이정도는 부품의 상대적 크기정도를, 표면정도는 3차원 형상정도를 나타낸다. 이들 부품의 정도를 평가하기 위해서는 반드시 측정이라는 방법이 수행되어야 하며, 측정은 요구되는 측정정도에 따라 이에 상용되는 방법으로 행해지게 된다. 요구되는 측정정도는 시간이 지남에 따라 점차 증가되고 있다. 이 러한 경향은 그림1의 시대에 따른 측정정도를 보면 확인할 수 있다. 시대에 따라 측정정도는 급격히 증가하고 있고 현재의 측정은 초정밀측정이라 말하는 약 0.1nm의 정밀도를 갖고 있다. 측정정도에 따라 표면측정기술도 여러가지 방법이 행해지고 있는데 이들 측정방법은 크게 접촉식 측정방법과 비접촉 측정 방법으로 나눌 수 있다. 대표적인 접촉식 측정방법으로는 촉침식 측정방법을 들 수 있다. 이 방법은 다이아몬드 촉침을 표면상에 접촉하여 주사이동하게 하고 이때 표면의 요철에 따른 촉침의 상하운동을 고성능 변위센서를 이용하여 표면형상을 측정하는 것이다. 이는1nm의 수직분해능을 갖고 측정이 가능 하다. 이 방법은 표면에 접촉함으로 인해 신뢰성이 높지만, 표면의 접촉압력으로 인해 표면의 손상 우려가 있다. 이런 이유로 현재 비접촉 측정방법이 주목받고 있다. 표면측정을 실현하는 데에는 광학 기술이 적극적으로 활용되고 있으며, 최근에는 물리학의 원리들이 도입되고 있다. 본 글에서는 이러한 측정기술의 기본원리를 소개하고 각 기술이 응용되는 예를 소개하고자 한다.

This paper describes the effect of the stylus tip size on the shape error in surface topography measurement. To analyze the distortional effect of an actual surface geometry origination from the finite stylus size, the surface is modeled as a sinusoid and the stylus tip as a circle. The magnitude of this distortion is defined as the ration of standard deviation, and this is expressed as an analytic function of the stylus tip radius and the geometrical parameter of a sinusoid. In this paper, the spectrum analysis of the profile is applied to investigate the distortional effect due to the mechanical filtering of the stylus in the frequency domain. and, the cumulative power spectrum is proposed to assess the shape error of measured data according to the various stylus tip sizes. From these results, a new method to select proper stylus tip radius is proposed.

This paper descries the effect of the stylus tip size on the measuring error in surface topography measurement. To analyze the distortional effect of an actual surface geometry originating from the finite stylus size, the surface is modeled as a sinusoid and the stylus tip as a circle. the measuring error is defined as the ratio of the standard deviation of a tracing profile and an original profile. It is shown that this measuring error depends on the amplitude and wavelength of an original profile. In this paper, the spectrum analysis is applied to investigate the distortional effect due to the mechanical filtering of the stylus in the frequency domain. and, the cumulative power spectrum is applied to determinate the minimum wavelength limits to be measured with the various stylus tip radius from these results, a new method to select proper stylus tip radius is proposed.

The practicability of Ion-Sputter machining renders it possible to make diamond stylus for surface roughness measurement with micro stylus tip radius less than 2${\mu}mR$, and to measure surface roughness of fine-machined surface. In this study, we researched the wear or Ion-Sputtered stylus with 0.1${\mu}mR$ and 0.5${\mu}mR$ for micro-figure measurement and polished stylus with 0.5${\mu}mR$ according to measurement distance. As a result, we know that the case of Ion-Sputtered stylus is worn down easilier the case of polished stylus. And we know that in the evaluation of stylus wear, it is more useful method that examine the wear by measuring the variation of stylus tip radius than by evaluating the variation of Ra values.

This paper presents a non-contact measuring system using one point measuring method to measure surface profiles of dies and clay models for practical use in the field of production engineering. The system has a laser beam probe similar to a measuring probe in a contact measuring system and CCD linear sensor used to detect 300mm measurement range, displacement of measured surfaces, from an origin. There is no mechanical interference between this measuring system and a measured surface in this system. In this measuring system, it was needed 500-600ms including data processing time to measure one point. The experiments showed that the standard deviation was 800 .mu.m and the reproducibility was also 100-210 .mu. m.

In accordance with the high precision of mechanical elements, it has been required to high precision in surface roughness measurement and, therefore, stylus tip radius is manufa- ctured less than 2 .mu. m through ion sputter machining. In this experiment, by suing ion sputter machined stylus pf fine tip, radius and lapping machined stylus, surface roughness of standard specimens, silicon wafer were measured and then Rmax, Ra, RMS value were investi- gatedaccording to the variation of tip radius of stylus. As a result, measuring error due to the variation of stylus tip radius in surface roughness measurement was decreased by using ion sputter machined stylus and also the measuring accuracy was improved. And the measuring variation of Ra, RMS calculated from correlation coefficient lager than 0.9 on the wave of short period and amplitude using ion sputter machined stylus of fine tip radius.

A new technique and theory are proposed which correct orientation of a cylinder to perform a reliable measurement of the surface profile. We analyze characteristics of machined surfaces, e.g., ground, lapped and turned surfaces. Based upon the results. the optimum correction technique is derived by the statistical method. To verify the techinques, measurements are carried out by using the contact stylus profilometer on a controllable table. The measurement shows that surface information of cylinders can be acquired with high accuracy.

The measuring Method by stylus, which measures surface roughness, has been widely used since G. Schmaltz developed the first equipment of that type. Withe the resent development of the measuring method by stylus, surface foughness testing instruments of the very high magnification ratio, hundreds of thousands, are manu- factured. However, as the techniques of the high precision roughness measurement are being required, the response problems due to the tip shapes and the plastic deformations of measured surface of mild material are to be serious factors. In this study, diamond stylus of tip radius $0.5\mu\textrm{m}$, $2\mu\textrm{m}$, $5\mu\textrm{m}$ and $10\mu\textrm{m}$ were used under the measuring force of 0.01gf, 0.02gf, 0.07gf, 0.4gf and 1.6gf, and from the experimental data, maximum measured value devrements between $2\mu\textrm{mR}$ stylus and $5\mu\textrm{mR}$ stylus, $2\mu\textrm{mR}$ stylus and $10\mu\textrm{mR}$ stylus are 22% and 31%, respectively when the measured value of $2\mu\textrm{mR}$ stylus goes to $0.01\mu\textrm{m Ra}$, $\lambda$ c2.5mm. And it is shown that plastic deformations on the plastic deformations on the measured surface are proportional to W/R(W;measured force, R;stylus tip radius).
