Creation of 3 D Models from SEM Images of Fine Protrusions Formed by Sputter-Etching

Abstract

Argon ion sputter-etching of stainless steels forms fine cone-, column-, and grain-shaped protrusions. The gripping ability between the fine protrusions and soft and slippery sheet can be measured by experiment. However, to conduct a large number of experiments is time-and cost-consuming, whereas fundamental
