Surface morphology is a branch of science that focuses on the study of the physical and topographical characteristics of solid surfaces. It involves examining the shape, texture, roughness, and other physical properties of surfaces at a micro- or nanoscale level. Researchers in this field use various techniques such as scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and profilometry to investigate surface features and understand their impact on properties such as adhesion, friction, and wear resistance. Surface morphology research has applications in various fields including materials science, physics, chemistry, and engineering.
