The FDTD analysis for dark field in-process depth measurements of fine microgrooves

Microstructures are widely used in the manufacture of functional surfaces. An optical-based in-process and non-invasive method is preferred for the depth measurement of the fine microgroove structure. A dark-field method is proposed using the features of polarization based on the waveguide theory. A...
