Dimensional measurement of 3D microstruture based on white light interferometer
Dimensional metrology for micro/nano structure is crucial for addressing quality issues and understanding the performance of micro-fabricated products and micro-fabrication processes. Most of the established methods are based on optical microscopy for planar dimensions and stylus profilometry for out-of-plane dimensions. Contact profilers suffer from slow speed of measurement for three-dimensional profiles and are not suitable for delicate surfaces and parts. Advanced systems using white light interferometer are equipped with CCD cameras and interfaced with a microscope to conduct an array of measurements ranging from two-dimensional to threedimensional profiles and surface roughness analysis. This paper presents a methodology based on white light interferometer for the dimensional measurement of 3D micro-structures, demonstrated on micro-gears and moulds produced by UV lithography and vacuuM casting, respectively. Physical artifacts, such as gauge blocks, are also utilized to verify and validate the measurements on the microcomponents.
