  • Device for swept source optical coherence domain reflectometry
    Patent number: 9044164
    Abstract: A device for swept-source optical coherence domain reflectometry (SS OCDR) on moveable samples, particularly human eyes, for obtaining A-scans, having a measuring range according to the sample length and having a laser light source which can be adjusted by a main wave number k0 and at least one receiver for the light dissipated from the sample, wherein the sample is illuminated on the sample surface by a measurement beam having a diameter D by way of a coupling device. The light source has a spectral line width of ?k<168 m?1 and the adjustment of the light source is carried out in ?<44 s/(D*k0).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 14, 2014
    Date of Patent: June 2, 2015
    Assignee: Carl Zeiss Meditec AG
    Inventors: Martin Hacker, Ralf Ebersbach, Thomas Pabst, Ulf Peterlein, Gerard Antkowiak, Roland Bergner, Ingo Koschmieder
