A new digital holographic interferometry (DHI) method processes complex phasors, not phase, for accurate measurements. Temporal phase retrieval algorithms show strong performance in step height profiling.

Area of Science:

  • Optics and Photonics
  • Metrology
  • Digital Imaging

Background:

  • Digital holographic interferometry (DHI) is a powerful technique for non-contact 3D surface measurements.
  • Conventional DHI methods often rely on phase-shifting or phase-subtraction techniques that can be sensitive to noise and environmental disturbances.
  • Processing complex phasors directly offers a potential avenue for improved robustness and accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel method for processing complex phasors in digital holographic interferometry (DHI).
  • To develop and validate temporal phase retrieval algorithms that analyze complex phasors over time.
  • To assess the performance of these algorithms in precise profile measurements, specifically step heights.

Main Methods:

  • Development of two novel temporal phase retrieval algorithms operating on complex phasors.
