摘要
A technique is described to measure the edge radius of diamond cutting tools using the scanning electron microscope (SEM). This method attempts to overcome two major limitations of the SEM in this application: low image contrast and lack of quantitative topographic information. A line of electron beam contamination, viewed at an angle, provides improved contrast for focusing and a means of obtaining the tool profile from the geometry.
