ISO collaborates closely with the InternationalElectrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accorda

26、ee ISO/TC 206, Fine ceramics.EN ISO 18452:2016 (E) DIN EN ISO 18452:2016-09 41 ScopeThis International Standard specifies a method for the determination of the film thickness of a fine ceramic filmand ceramic coatings by a contact-probe profilometer. The method is suitable for film thicknesses in th
27、e rangeof to .NOTE The method requires a distinct and clearly formed boundary between coated and uncoated parts of the substrate.2 Normative referencesThe following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For datedreferences, only the edition cited applies. For u
28、ndated references, the latest edition of the referenced document(including any amendments) applies.ISO 3274, Geometrical Product Specifications (GPS) Surface texture: Profile method Nominalcharacteristics of contact (stylus) instruments3 Terms and definitionsFor the purposes of this document, the fo
29、llowing terms and definitions apply.3.1 fine ceramic filmcoating consisting of a fine ceramic material which thinly covers the substrate surfaceEXAMPLE Typical materials are oxides, carbides, nitrides, etc., deposited by methods such as vacuum evaporating,sputtering, chemical vapour deposition, etc.
30、4 Principle of measurementThis International Standard concerns the measurement of the film thickness of fine ceramic coatings on asubstrate using a contact-probe profilometer. The film thickness shall be calculated from the profile which isobtained by scanning the contact probe in the direction , as
31、 shown in Figure 1. The profile is inproportion to the difference in height between the parts covered and not covered with the fine ceramic film.5 Test environmentThe test shall be carried out in an environment free from mechanical vibrations that may affect themeasurement.10 nm 10 000 nmCBAEN ISO 1

The instrument shall be calibrated byusing step-height calibration standards in accordance with the limits given in Clause 10.In metrology, it is alw
33、ays very important to have calibration and checking conditions corresponding to themeasurement conditions. Therefore, the calibration or certified reference materials should be as similar aspossible to the step height to be measured.6.2 Contact probeThe stylus chip of a contact probe is made of diam
34、ond, and has a conical shape. The vertical angle of the chipis or . The radius of the chip is any of , , , and .NOTE The effect of the stylus-tip radius on the lateral profile resolution, i. e. the step-edge broadening due to the bluntnessof the tip (see Figure 2), should be considered. However, due
35、 to the horizontal compression of the displayed picture (fargreater vertical than horizontal magnification), this effect can be neglected for routine coating thickness measurementswhere definitive horizontal resolution is unimportant.Key1 contact probe2film3 level difference4 substratefilm thickness

37、cut from such an item.The test pieces shall have dimensions sufficient to ensure stability on the test piece support of the profilometer.Select a representative test specimen from the coating to be tested. Clean the specimen, using an appropriatemethod for the coating, so that it is free from dust,
38、oil, moisture and any other surface films. The test-pieces maybe produced by machining from a larger board on which the fine ceramic thin film was formed to the appropriatesize.NOTE 1 The level difference is formed by taking away part of the film by chemical etching, or by depositing the film throug
39、ha mask.NOTE 2 When covering part of the substrate during deposition, it can happen that the deposition rate near the step isinfluenced by the covering medium. This results in a step which is not representative for the coating thickness. This can beprevented by using very thin covering plates, or it
40、 can be circumvented by etching away part of the coating after the coatingprocess.7.2 Surface conditionsBecause surface roughness will affect the result, the value of both substrate and coating shall be no greaterthan of the step height, and the average wavelength of the roughness shall be of AB for
41、 thesubstrate or CD for the coating (see Figure 3).NOTE The repeatability of the step-height measurement depends on the electronic noise level of the instrument, thedigitization increment of the signal and the mechanical stability of the stylus or sample motion. However, the major source ofstatistic
42、al variation in calculated step heights is the surface roughness of the step specimen, which is the ultimateuncertainty in assigning a height value to a stylus step profile.Key1 substrate2stepFigure 2 Broading of the step “B” due to the bluntness (radius ) of the stylus tiprRa1/5 10 %RaEN ISO 18452:

Procedures for this will depend upon the machine being used. Errors in levelling will resultin differences betw
45、een the measured and the true value of the coating thickness (see Annex A). As shown inAnnex A, the magnitude of the error depends on both the angular levelling error and the ratio width of thestep/coating thickness.Step height = Key1 direction of travel of stylusXHorizontal.YVertical.-position of p

In order for the limits of
47、the step width (points B and C in Figure 3) to be accurately identified, thetravel for the probe on the uncoated and coated portions of the sample (distances AB and CD respectively; seeFigure 3) shall each be a minimum of .The contact probe should be scanned along a line perpendicular to the boundar
48、y between coated and uncoatedportions of the substrate.To avoid damage to the profile of the step, scanning shall take place in the direction from the coating surface tothe substrate surface, i.e. down the step given in Clause 4.NOTE It is desirable that the stylus loading is small so that it does n
49、ot give rise to damage of the coating or the substrate.However, if the stylus loading is too small it may pick up external vibrations and produce an irregular profile.8.4 Inspect the scan, for example by light microscopy, in order to determine whether any damage to thesample has occurred.8.5 Repeat the procedure to give five measurements for each sample tested. Because the surfaces on eitherside of the step are often not flat and not parallel, a single
