Abstract: By using two probe optical systems for measurement by disposing the probe optical systems with a test object sandwiched therebetween, an optical path length of light transmitted through the test object which is identified locally is calculated using an interference signal thereof. In addition, a geometrical thickness of the same part is calculated by measuring positions of the probe optical systems, whereby two calculated values are obtained. Based on the values and a calculated value for a reference object, a refractive index distribution of the test object is obtained.

According to the inspection method, a first light beam 24 and a second light beam 26 both having different phases are generated from light which has passed through an optical component 18, and are interfered with each other to form an interference region 30.

Further, an approximated liner line or an approximated curved line is determined from a plurality of frequencies determined for each of the linear line 72. Then, the aberration of the optical component is evaluated based on the coefficient of the approximated linear or curved line.

Abstract: A lens evaluation method includes diffracting light derived from a lens so that two diffracted rays of different orders (e.g., a 0th-order diffracted ray and a +1st-order diffracted ray) interfere with each other, thereby obtaining a shearing interference figure, and changing phases of the diffracted rays. The method also includes in the shearing interference figure, determining phases of light intensity changes at a plurality of measuring points on a measuring line which passes through a midpoint of a line segment interconnecting optical axes of the two diffracted rays, and determining characteristics (defocus amount, coma, astigmatism, spherical aberration and a higher-order aberration) of the lens based on the phases.

Abstract: A method for evaluating aberrations of an optical element such as optical head for use with an optical system such as DVD. In this method, light is transmitted through the optical element and then diffracted into 0, ±1, ±2, . . . order diffraction lights, for example. Among others, first and second lights (e.g., 0 and +1, 0 and −1, +1 and −1, or 0 and ±1 order diffracted lights) are overlapped to form an image shared by the first and second lights. Then, light intensity at first and second points in the shared image are detected. At this moment, light intensity at the first and second points are changed. Then, a phase difference in light intensity of between first and second points is determined. Using the phase difference, aberrations of the optical element are determined.
