- Such an interferometric measuring device is identified as known in DE 1 97 2 1 843 C1, this known interferometric measuring device being constructed as a white light interferometer measuring device with a section designed as a modulation interferometer and a section designed as an imaging interferometer that is assigned to the measurement object.
- the imaging interferometer is designed in such a way that measurements can also be carried out in narrow cavities. It is suggested that a first 02/082007
- a measuring probe can be inserted into cavities. E.g. in a manufacturing process during measurement, vibrations of the measuring device and / or the measurement object can result in inaccuracies in the measurement result.
- a radiation generation unit for example a light-emitting diode or superluminescent diode, emits a short-coherent radiation, which is split via a beam splitter into a first partial beam guided via object light and a second partial beam guided via a reference path.
- the reference light path is changed periodically by means of two deflector elements and a fixed diffraction grating arranged behind them by actuating the deflector elements in order to scan the object surface in the depth direction. If the object light path and the reference light path match, there is a maximum 02/082007
- the interference contrast which is detected by means of an evaluation device connected downstream of the photodetector device.
- the invention has the object of providing an interferometric measurement device of the type mentioned to provide, with the impact of '
- connection unit is provided, by means of which at least one section of the measuring device associated with the measurement object can be directly mechanically rigidly and detachably connected to the measurement object.
- Connection unit is a mechanical adaptation between the measurement object and the measuring device for the measurement process. Then the connection can be released and a mechanically rigid coupling to the subsequent measurement object can be made, e.g. carry out a quality control in a series production.
- connection unit is formed by a plug, clamp, tension, snap, clip or screw connection.
- An advantageous embodiment of the interferometric measuring device is that it is designed as a white light interferometer measuring device with an object light path and a reference light path and that at least the reflective reference plane can be connected to the measuring object by means of the connecting unit.
- a compact structure is achieved in that the object light path and the reference light path form an interconnected rigid unit consisting of object arm and reference arm. 02/082007
- the white light interferometer has a modulation interferometer and an imaging interferometer assigned to the object, this results in a simplified operation since the generally more complex modulation interferometer with the device for changing the light path is separated from the imaging interferometer assigned to the measurement object, which corresponds to this - can be constructed simply and robustly and can be adapted to the respective measuring task.
- a structure advantageous for handling z. B characterized by a short-coherent radiation generating unit, a beam splitter for forming a first and a second partial beam, with the measurement changing the optical path length of the first partial beam relative to the optical path length of the second partial beam, the one formed by the beam splitter first partial beam is first directed to a fixed first mirror via a first arm, while the second partial beam is directed to the reflecting element via a second arm, the optical path difference between the first and second arms being greater than the coherence length of the radiation, wherein the radiation which comes from the first mirror 1 and the reflecting element and which is passed on together is guided by means of a further beam splitter partly via the object light path to the measurement object and partly via the reference path to a reference mirror, the reference mirror being in a s such a distance is arranged with respect to the measurement object that the path difference between the first mirror and the reflecting element is eliminated, and wherein the radiation incident on the reference mirror and that directed to the measurement object Radiation reflects superimposed and is recorded by
- a construction which is favorable for handling consists in that the reference light path is formed in a separate reference office or in an optical probe through which the radiation guided to the measurement object is also guided, the reference mirror reflecting the part of the radiation belonging to the reference light path and that part of the object light path that transmits the radiation.
- a simple measurement of different measuring surfaces is made possible by arranging at least one optical element and / or elements deforming the wavefront of the radiation in the object light path.
- At least one intermediate image is generated in the object light path and in that both the radiation leading to the measurement object and the radiation returning from it run through the optical probe.
- a favorable construction also results from the fact that the reference mirror is provided on a plane plate or a prism.
- a fiber optic is arranged between the beam splitter and the further beam splitter.
- FIG. 1 shows a first exemplary embodiment of an interferometric measuring device with a modulation interferometer and an imaging interferometer rigidly connected to an object, 02/082007
- Fig. 2 shows another embodiment in which the imaging interferometer has a Commo ⁇ -Path structure and is rigidly connected to the object, and
- Fig. 3 shows a further structure of the interferometric measuring device with a common reference and measuring light path (Cornmon Path
- Fig. 1 shows an interferometric measuring device with a modulation interferometer MI removed from an object D to be measured and an imaging interferometer AI assigned to the object O.
- the modulation interferometer MI has a short-coherent or broadband radiation-generating radiation unit SLD, such as a light-emitting diode or superluminescent diode, the radiation of which is divided by means of a beam splitter ST1 into a first partial beam T1 of a first arm and a second partial beam T2 of a second arm.

If the change in the light path s with two O 02/082007
- the optical path difference between the arms thus formed is greater than the coherence length of the one generated by the radiation generation unit SLD
- the reflected radiation is fed into the imaging interferometer via the beam splitter ST1, a fiber optic LF and a further beam splitter ST2.
- An object light path with an optical probe OS and a reference light path with a further reference mirror RSP2 are formed in the imaging interferometer AI, which is likewise designed as a Michelson interferometer.
- the radiation is coupled into the optical probe OS, so that the radiation is a surface of a measurement object to be measured
- the object surface is imaged by the optical probe OS via one or more intermediate images, for example, on a photodetector device in the form of an image converter or image sensor BS, for example a CCD camera.
- the image of the measurement object O on the image sensor BS is overlaid with the reference wave of the second partial beam of the reference light path.
- high interference contrast occurs when a path difference in the reference light path and the measurement light path is smaller than the coherence length.
- the measuring principle is based on white light interferometry (short-coherence interferometry), as described in more detail in the publications mentioned at the beginning.
- the length of the reference light path is varied over the entire measuring range for scanning in the depth direction of the surface to be measured by moving the mirror RSP1 in the second arm of the modulation interferometer MI, the length of the reference light path at which the highest interference contrast occurs being detected for each measuring point ,
- the intermediate images make it possible to image the surface of the measurement object with a high lateral resolution over a distance that is large compared to the diameter of the imaging optics.
- the optical probe OS is similar to an endoscope or borescope, but the illumination and the return of the radiation coming from the measurement surface are carried out via the same optical arrangement via at least one intermediate image. In Fig. 1, some lenses L are shown schematically as further imaging elements. The actual intermediate images are generated in the optical probe OS.
- the same optical probe can also be integrated into the reference path between the beam splitter ST2 and the reference mirror RSP2 as in the object path between the beam splitter ST2 and the measurement object O.
- the interferometric measuring device can also be arranged with a common reference and measuring arm (common path 5 order).
- the interferometric measuring device is again illuminated with a short-coherent (broadband) radiation generation unit.
