Development of a Three - Dimensional Noncontact Digital Optical Profiler
نویسندگان
چکیده
A noncontact three-dimensional optical profiler for measuring surface roughness is described. The system consists of a reflection microscope, Mirau interferometer with a reference surface mounted on a piezoelectric transducer, CID detector array, frame grabber, and micro-computer. Interferometric phase-shifting techniques are used to obtain surface height information. The height measurements areprocessed by a computer to obtain topographical statistical parameters, which are useful in predicting tribological and magnetic performances of the head-media interface in magnetic storage systems. Sample data are presented for magnetic media (tape, floppy disk, and rigid disk), a magnetic head, a silicon wafer, and a glass slide.

During the past decade, optical imaging combined with tomographic approaches has proved its potential in offering quantitative three-dimensional spatial maps of chromophore or fluorophore concentration in vivo. Due to its direct application in biology and biomedicine, diffuse optical tomography (DOT) and its fluorescence counterpart, fluorescence molecular tomography (FMT), have benefited from ...
متن کاملUse of three-dimensional ultrasonography of the eye and measurement of optical long axis in dog
This study was conducted to determine the use of three-dimensional ultrasonography (3DU) in ocular imaging of the dog and measuring of its optical axis. 12 healthy mixed-breed dogs including 6 males and 6 females were studied. 3DU of the eyes were done using a 5–12 MHz linear trapezoid transducer. 3DU of the eyes were evaluated and the normal optical long axis through a line between the cornea ...

متن کاملOptical characterization of an unknown single layer: Institut Fresnel contribution to the Optical Interference Coatings 2004 Topical Meeting Measurement Problem.
We present the characterizations performed at the Institut Fresnel for the Measurement Problem of the Optical Interference Coatings 2004 Topical Meeting. A single layer coated on a fused-silica substrate of unknown composition and parameters is analyzed in terms of optogeometrical parameters, uniformity, and scattering. We determine the refractive index and the average thickness of the coating,...
