Observation of the coating layer of eyeglass lenses using a microtome.

We will introduce a case where cross-sections were created and observed by method regarding the adhesive parts of the tires of pull-back cars. When conducting SEM observations of the created cross-sections, fillers present inside the rubber were confirmed. It was found that the dispersion state of the fillers and the condition of the adhesive interface were not clear with fracture by liquid nitrogen or mechanical polishing. In contrast, the cross-sections created by cryo ion milling allow for clear observation of the dispersion state of the fillers contained within the rubber and the condition of the adhesive interface with the plastic substrate.

At Aites Co., Ltd., we conduct "optical film analysis." Optical films used in smartphones and other devices have various functions depending on their structure and materials. We measured the light transmittance of privacy protection films at different angles and combined cross-sectional observation with Raman analysis to investigate the mechanism of function manifestation. By investigating the transmittance characteristics of privacy protection films using angle-variable spectrophotometry, we were able to analyze the mechanism of function manifestation through cross-sectional observation and Raman analysis. At Aites, we provide consistent evaluation and analysis from material properties to the mechanisms of function manifestation.
