چکیده

Phase-shifting interferometry with a genetic algorithm is proposed. The correction of unknown phase-shifting error is an important task in general phase-shifting interferometry. Since phase-shifting errors generate twin image noise in a reconstructed image, we can reduce the phase-shifting errors indirectly by trying to eliminate the twin-image noise in the reconstructed image. By Zernike polynomial expansion, the reconstructed image is represented as the evenness and oddness, where the ratio of the evenness and oddness is a measure of the amount of the twin image noise. We employ the genetic algorithm for finding the fittest phase shifts of interferograms by reducing the evenness of the reconstructed image, which leads to reduction of phase-shifting errors. This phase-shifting interferometry with a genetic algorithm is confirmed experimentally.

In this paper, we report on the design and fabrication of a low-cost phase shifter for application in phase shifting interferometry. Phase shifting interferometry is a powerful method for surface characterization. It uses interference data recorded during a series of predetermined phase shifts to recover the induced phase by the object surface. These controlled phase shifts are typically perfor...

Spatial phase-shifting interferometry with compensation of geometric errors based on genetic algorithm

We propose a novel spatial phase-shifting interferometry that exploits a genetic algorithm to compensate for geometric errors. Spatial phase-shifting interferometry is more suitable for measuring objects with properties that change rapidly in time than the temporal phase-shifting interferometry. However, it is more susceptible to the geometric errors since the positions at which interferograms ...

Noise in phase shifting interferometry.

We present a theoretical analysis to estimate the amount of phase noise due to noisy interferograms in Phase Shifting Interferometry (PSI). We also analyze the fact that linear filtering transforms corrupting multiplicative noise in Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESPI) into fringes corrupted by additive gaussian noise. This fact allow us to obtain a formula to estimate the standard ...

New algorithms and error analysis for sinusoidal phase shifting interferometry

An alternative to the conventional linear phase shift in optical testing interferometers is a sinusoidal phase shift, which has the benefit of relaxing requirements on the phase-shifting mechanism. We propose error-compensating phasedemodulation algorithms and provide a new, comprehensive sensitivity analyses to random noise, nonlinearity, vibrations and calibration error to demonstrate that si...

Statistical phase-shifting step estimation algorithm based on the continuous wavelet transform for high-resolution interferometry metrology.

We propose a statistical phase-shifting estimation algorithm for temporal phase-shifting interferometry (PSI) based on the continuous wavelet transform (CWT). The proposed algorithm explores spatial information redundancy in the intraframe interferogram dataset using the phase recovery property on the power ridge of the CWT. Despite the errors introduced by the noise of the interferogram, the s...
