Results are presented of measurements on superpolished and conventionally polished substrates as well as on thin film fluoride coatings, demonstrating the capabilities of these measurement techniques.enatomic force microscopeDünne optische SchichtLichtstreuunglight scatteringOberflächenrauheitoptical thin filmsRasterkraftmikroskopiesurface roughness620628AFM and light scattering measurements of optical thin films for applications in the UV spectral regionjournal article
