摘要
Comparison of measured step heights was carried out by means of nanoscale optical microscopes and an atomic force microscope (AFM) using a Frank spiral as a standard reference. It was found that the individual step height of the spiral was about 16.5 nm as obtained using two-beam interferometry, but AFM showed the height as 23.45-18.98 nm. This discrepancy was discussed briefly.
