White-light scanning interferometer for absolute nano-scale gap thickness measurement.
A special configuration of white-light scanning interferometer is described for measuring the absolute air gap thickness between two planar plates brought into close proximity. The measured gap is not located in any interference arm of the interferometer, but acts as an amplitude-and-phase modulator of the light source. Compared with the common white-light interferometer our approach avoids the...
متن کاملVibration compensating beam scanning interferometer for surface measurement.
Light beam scanning using a dispersive element and wavelength tuning is coupled with fiber-optic interferometry to realize a new surface measurement instrument. The instrument is capable of measuring nanoscale surface structures and form deviations. It features active vibration compensation and a small optical probe size that may be placed remotely from the main apparatus. Active vibration comp...
متن کاملNew absolute distance measurement technique with a self-mixing interferometer
A new compact self-aligned noncontact range finder is described. It uses the selfmixing effect inside a laser diode. Double modulation technique is proposed to improve the measurement accuracy. Wavelength modulation (WM) of the laser beam is obtained by modulating the injection current of the laser diode. Phase modulation (PM) of the laser beam is obtained by an electro-optic crystal (EOC) in t...
متن کاملSplit-spectrum intensity-based optical fiber sensors for measurement of microdisplacement, strain, and pressure.
A self-referencing technique compensating for fiber losses and source fluctuations in reflective air-gap intensity-based optical fiber sensors is described. A dielectric multilayer short-wave-pass filter is fabricated onto or attached to the output end face of the lead-in-lead-out multimode fiber. The incoming broadband light from a white light or a light-emitting diode is partially reflected a...
متن کاملThree-dimensional phase imaging with a scanning optical-fiber interferometer.
We describe a quantitative method for measuring the phase of a propagating wave field in three dimensions by use of a scanning optical-fiber interferometer. Because phase modulation in the reference arm is exploited, this technique is insensitive to large variations in the intensity of the field being studied and is therefore highly suitable for measurement of phase within spatially confined op...
