Prerequisites:
Basic knowledge in light microscopy
The growing diversity of functions of ever smaller microstructures and the development of new highduty materials call for innovative, non-destructive testing methods in materials research and quality inspection. Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy provides flexible, non-contact, quantitative 3D analysis of microstructures and materials surfaces. In this course you will learn the optical fundamentals and the capabilities and limits of the technique. In hands-on sessions you will carry out basic measurement assignments with defined microstructures or on samples you brought along.
- Fundamentals of confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (resolution, working ranges, slope detection)
- Contrasting methods (reflection, fluorescence, polarization, spectral imaging)
- Advantages of LSM in comparison to other techniques (REM, AFM, interferometer, tactile systems)
- Surface reconstruction in theory and practice: Topography software
- Topographic measurements (geometry, roughness, functional parameters)
Duration:
two days, 9 a.m. - 6 p.m.
