摘 要:The sensitivity of thin-film materials and devices to defects motivates extensive research into the optimization of film *** research could be accelerated by automated experiments that characterize the response of film morphology to synthesis *** imaging can resolve morphological defects in thin films and is readily integrated into automated experiments but the large volumes of images produced by such systems require automated *** approaches to automatically analyzing film morphologies in optical images require application-specific customization by software experts and are not robust to changes in image content or imaging ***,we present a versatile convolutional neural network(CNN)for thin-film image analysis which can identify and quantify the extent of a variety of defects and is applicable to multiple materials and imaging *** CNN is readily adapted to new thin-film image analysis tasks and will facilitate the use of imaging in automated thin-film research systems.
