  • Publication number: 20130094028
    Abstract: A coherence grid—interferometer for spatially resolved optic measurement of an object, with a light source, an interferometer, a path length—altering unit, and camera with a detection area. The interferometer cooperates with the light source and camera such that an outgoing beam is split into a measuring beam and a reference beam, the measuring beam is at least partially reflected by the object to the detection area of the camera and overlapped via a beam splitter with the reference beam such that the overlapped beams overlap the photo sensors in a planar fashion, and the optic path length—altering unit changes the optic path length of the measuring and/or reference beams. The path length—altering unit has a path scale and a path detector which detect a changing length of the optic path of the measuring and/or reference beams and the interferogram records are synchronized with the path measurement.

  • Patent number: 7518101
    Abstract: A scanning microscope for the optical measuring of an object in which a measurement beam emitted by the light source impinges the object and is reflected by the object as a reflection beam that reenters through the lens into the radiation path of the microscope. A scanner control unit controls a displacement to change the relative position of the object and the measuring beam so that the beam is directed to at least two different measuring points on the object. An excitation unit periodically excites the object. The reflection beam is visualized on a signal detector, and a signal storage unit saves a measuring sequence of signals of the signal detector. The scanner control unit cooperates with the excitation and signal storage units to control them such that for each measuring point on the object at least one measuring sequence of measuring signals of the signal detector is saved.
