  2. White light interferometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_light_interferometry

    Figure 1: Schematic layout of a White-light Interferometer. A CCD image sensor like those used for digital photography is placed at the point where the two images are superimposed. A broadband “white light” source is used to illuminate the test and reference surfaces. A condenser lens collimates the light from the broadband light source.

  3. White light scanner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_light_scanner

    A white light scanner (WLS) is a device for performing surface height measurements of an object using coherence scanning interferometry with spectrally-broadband, "white light" illumination. Different configurations of scanning interferometer may be used to measure macroscopic objects with surface profiles measuring in the centimeter range, to ...

  4. Michelson interferometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelson_interferometer

    Michelson interferometers using a white light source White light has a tiny coherence length and is difficult to use in a Michelson (or Mach–Zehnder ) interferometer. Even a narrowband (or "quasi-monochromatic") spectral source requires careful attention to issues of chromatic dispersion when used to illuminate an interferometer.

    Optical coherence tomogram of a fingertip. It is possible to observe the sweat glands, having "corkscrew appearance" Interferometric reflectometry of biological tissue, especially of the human eye using short-coherence-length light (also referred to as partially-coherent, low-coherence, or broadband, broad-spectrum, or white light) was investigated in parallel by multiple groups worldwide ...

    Both arms of the interferometer were contained in a transparent solid . The light source was a Helium–neon laser. ~7 km/s Trimmer et al. [30] [31] 1973: They searched for anisotropies of the speed of light behaving as the first and third of the Legendre polynomials. They used a triangle interferometer, with one portion of the path in glass.

  9. Reflectometric interference spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflectometric...

    White light is directed vertically onto a multiple-layer system of a SiO 2, a high-refractive Ta 2 O 5 and an additional SiO 2 layer (this additional layer can be chemically modified). The partial beams of the white light are reflected at each phase boundary and then refracted (transmitted).
