Description

Double-camera parallel confocal differential microscopic 3D morphology measuring device
Technical Field
The utility model belongs to the field of optical microscopic imaging and microcosmic surface topography measurement, more specifically say, relate to a two camera parallel confocal differential microscopic 3D topography measuring device and method.
Background
The existing microscopic three-dimensional shape measurement technology has a plurality of defects, such as small detection observation range of an electronic scanning microscope and low environment anti-interference capability; the need for a large number of axial scans for optical interferometry limits the measurement efficiency of this type of method. The differential confocal measurement of the double detectors based on the traditional laser scanning confocal microscopic imaging method needs point-by-point scanning, and real-time and rapid three-dimensional measurement is difficult to realize; for example, the invention patent of Beijing university of Phytology application No. 201310026956.4 and the invention patent of Harbin university of industry application No. 201410617222.8, which achieve axial tomographic capability through pinholes and further improve axial measurement accuracy through differentiation, however, they both require a horizontal point-by-point scanning of the sample to complete three-dimensional measurement of the whole field of view, and they have the following drawbacks: when the transverse resolution point position exceeds 1 million points, the multi-point high-precision longitudinal measurement higher than 1Hz is difficult to realize. The structured light illumination microscopy can avoid point-by-point scanning in the horizontal direction, can also improve the transverse resolution capability to exceed the diffraction limit of an optical imaging system, and still needs the transverse movement of a grating to generate structured light with different phases and perform phase modulation; and the structured light is mainly used for improving the transverse optical resolution capability, and the longitudinal resolution capability of the structured light is lower than that of a conjugate pinhole scheme. For example, the invention of the iean university of transportation application No. 201510707518.3 adopts a differential method to improve the longitudinal measurement accuracy based on the phase modulation structured light imaging scheme, and the method avoids the point-by-point scanning in the horizontal direction, and the longitudinal measurement accuracy is higher than the conventional structured light method, but still has the disadvantages that firstly, the method still needs to generate the phase modulation structured light through the mechanical movement of the grating, and the efficiency is low. Secondly, the longitudinal measurement precision is difficult to realize the high precision of nanometer level. According to the existing parallel confocal measurement technology of the university of Huaqiao, which is applied to No. 201510922156X, by longitudinally moving the relative distance between a microscope objective and a sample, an area array detector is used for respectively acquiring a pair of images, namely an image before focus, on the surface of the sample in front of a focal plane, then the sample is moved to a place with an equal distance after focus, a gray level image after the focus of the sample is acquired, a differential longitudinal response curve is constructed through the difference between the two images, and the nanometer precision parallel confocal 3D measurement is realized. Although this method overcomes the problems of the conventional laser scanning confocal 3D measurement technique that requires scanning point by point in the horizontal direction and layer by layer in the longitudinal direction, this method still has the disadvantages that the sample needs to be moved to construct a 3D profile of a field of view. The method is the same as the phase modulation structured light imaging scheme, and 3D imaging of the FOV of an observation field can be completed only by staying one observation field, so that the method is not beneficial to rapid multi-field scanning of a large sample needing sub-aperture splicing and 3D appearance observation and measurement of the large sample. Therefore, there is a need for an optical measurement method to solve the above problems to achieve high precision, high efficiency, and large field range of microscopic 3D topography.
