Abstract
An attitude has developed that the results of any SEM measurement arc absolutely true. If this were the case, there would be no need for standards and no metrological problems would exist in making submicrometer measurements. Multiple, basic errors associated with metrology in the SEM can exist. These were clearly demonstrated in the SEM interlaboratory study in which Texas A&M participated. Many of these problems can be overcome by calibration and careful use of the instrument. The SEM has become the technology of choice for submicrometer metrology, yet one must be extremely careful when doing any type of metrology with this instrument.Citation
