title: High accuracy quartz crystal thin film monitor.
abstract: A quartz resonator thin film monitor of exceptionally high accuracy and resolution has been developed. It is capable of providing measurements with an effective resolution of 0.001 nm and a corresponding relative accuracy of about 1% for a 0.100-nm-thick film of gold. A novel dual oscillator and mixer using integrated circuits is also described.
