Surface Finish of Quartz Crystal Microbalance
Reliable quality control heavily relies upon accurate, quantifiable and reproducible surface inspection. Flatness & finish of the Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) surface are vital to its accuracy and both measurements in 3D guarantees proper manufacture processing and control measures. Unlike a touch probe technique, the Nanovea Profilometer performs a 3D non-contact surface measurement of the sample. This eliminates the risk of creating micro scratches on the QCM surface that may cause inaccuracy or errors in the mass measurement.
