Abstract: The invention relates to an optical measuring process for acquiring a surface topography of a measurement object. To this end, a measuring device with a measuring head in a measuring head guide device is provided for chromatic confocal acquisition of the surface topography or for spectral interferometric OCT acquisition of the distance to the surface topography. Firstly, spectrally broadband light of a light source from a fibre array with i fibres of i measurement spots is directed onto the measurement object via a common measuring head optic, with formation of a spot array of i measurement spots. i reflection spectra of the i measurement channels are then acquired and digitized. Finally, the digitized reflection spectra are evaluated with removal of time variations of systematic measurement errors and time-related deviation movements of the measuring head guide device.

Abstract: The invention relates to an optical measuring device for acquiring in situ a difference in distance between a support and an edge region of an object to be measured. The optical measuring device has a measuring head with dual beam guide which directs a first measuring beam towards the support and a second measuring beam towards the edge region of the object to be measured. Means are provided for acquiring and forming reflection spectra of the first measuring beam which is directed towards the support and the second measuring beam which is directed towards the edge region of the object to be measured. The measuring device has a multi-channel measuring apparatus with one spectrometer line. An evaluation unit for the reflection spectra for acquiring the stage height between the support and the edge region of the object works together with a spectrometer and a display unit.

Abstract: A device and a method for the contactless measurement of at least one curved surface. The device comprises at least one light source for generating light with a continuous spectrum, and a light exit face assigned to the light source. It furthermore has at least one measurement head having an optical imaging system with chromatic aberration for imaging the light exit face into wavelength-dependent focal planes, and an optical spectral instrument by which it is possible to record the spectral intensity distribution of light which is directed through the optical system onto the surface to be measured and is reflected therefrom. The device is furthermore equipped with an evaluation unit by which a distance between the optical system and the surface can be assigned to each wavelength at which the intensity distribution recorded by the optical spectral instrument has a local maximum. The surface to be measured is plane in one space direction.
