Abstract

In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for measuring the inner diameter of a small diameter hole, such as a TSV, having a diameter of 10 μm or less. Therefore, we have been developing a measurement system using an optical fiber as a stylus to measure microstructures with low measurement force. In this study, a method to design and manufacture an improved two-step stylus that has a small shaft diameter, which can be inserted into a small diameter hole or small groove, and a large diameter of the remaining shaft less susceptible to external influences will be discussed. Furthermore, a method to design and manufacture a two-step plus hinge stylus with a hinge that further helps improve the measurement sensitivity of the two-step stylus, in addition an L-shaped stylus that has a pointed tip and bent shaft in the middle is proposed for surface roughness measurement.
