A new analysis for diffraction correction in optical interferometry
2017
Dimensional measurements by laser interferometry require a correction because of diffraction, which makes the fringe period different from the wavelength of a plane wave. The fractional correction—from parts in 10−7 to parts in 10−9, depending on the beam collimation—is half the central second moment of the angular power-spectrum of the beam, a generalization of the divergence concept. We report new insights into the second moment measurement and their consequences on the measurement of the silicon lattice parameter by combined x-ray and optical interferometry.
