Abstract
ABSTRACT A practical method to rapidly obtain the 2D thickness distribution in free-standing smectic films is developed based on the colour information of reflected image of the film. The red(R), green(G) and blue(B) colour coordinates from each pixel of a colour camera is normalised by the local intensity and is then quantitatively analysed in reference to the theoretical reflection spectra evaluated as a function of the film thickness. Results from the optical system employing a standard stereomicroscope can clearly discriminate a single-layer step over a wide range of thicknesses and provide thickness values with a precision better than 1 nm.
