PHASE-DETECTION WAVELENGTH-SCANNING INTERFEROMETRY

J. Kato, I. Yamaguchi

Abstract

We have realized an accurate height measurement for discontinuous shape by using the wavelength scanning interferometry combined with phase-shifting technique. It is based on detection of phase variation slope along the wavenumber axis at each pixel of a CCD camera that takes a number of phase-shifted interferograms using a PZT mirror. By using a tunable laser diode with wavelengthscanning range of 8 nm and scanning step of 0.2 nm, a height standard deviation of 40 nm could be obtained for the depth of ± 0.75 mm. This technique was applied to profile measurements of an aspherical mirror and rough-surface objects.
