Film thickness measurement method
The method uses color distance in the CIE 1976 (L*a*b*) color space to determine metal film thickness, addressing the challenge of spectral interference from metal surfaces and enhancing measurement accuracy by utilizing calibration curves for each metal type.

Abstract
This film thickness measurement method, which is a method for measuring the thickness of a metal film, comprises a first step, a second step, and a third step. In the first step, a surface color, which is a color exhibited by the surface of the metal film, is measured. In the second step, the color distance is determined using the surface color. In the third step, the film thickness is determined by applying the color distance obtained in the second step to a metal film thickness-color distance relationship set on a per-metal type basis, the metal type being the type of metal.
