Results of surface roughness measurements by AFM and stylus profilometry. The samples and locations of measurements are shown in Figure 1. The uncertainties have a 95 % confidence level (k = 2). No AFM results were available from the channel surfaces of sample 4, or from sample 5. No stylus profilometry results were available from the bonding surface of sample 2 − sample 4. These results were also communicated in reports and a data set of the MFMET project [31,32,34,35].
