Abstract:
Autocorrelation functions for rough surfaces of evaporated opaque magnesium deposits are determined from electron microphotographs of the shadowed-surface carbon replicas. These microphotographs are analyzed, using a data-processing system microdensitometer. It is shown that autocorrelation functions do not have a Gaussian form, as is usually assumed.
