Abstract

1350440 Measuring surface roughness PHILIPS ELECTRONIC & ASSOCIATED INDUSTRIES Ltd 19 April 1971 [25 March 1970] 24851/71 Addition to 1282516 Heading G1A In a modification of an apparatus for measuring the roughness of a surface 21 of the kind disclosed in Pat. No. 1282516 wherein two images of the surface are superimposed on one another, light from a source 22 is formed by an electrooptical modulator 24 into two sub-beams, which are polarized at right angles to one another and have a periodically varying difference in phase with respect to one another, the sub-beams being directed on to the surface 21 via beam splitting mirror 25 and an interferometer 26, which provides a mutual lateral displacement between the beams and the reflected beam passes, as shown, through an analyzer 29, the direction of polarization of which is at an angle of 45 degrees to the sub-beam. Thus two mutually coherent laterally displaced images of the portion of the surface being investigated may be superimposed on the sensitive surface of a detector 31 is enabling optical interference to take place, and the detector's output may be processed as disclosed in the above patent. A mathematical analysis is disclosed.
