    Area of Science:

    • Optical Metrology
    • Surface Metrology
    • Computational Geometry

    Background:

    • Zonal reconstruction methods are vital for surface profile analysis in slope-based metrology.
    • Existing methods, designed for rectangular geometry, exhibit significant errors when applied to general quadrilateral geometries.
    • Phase measuring deflectometry often involves quadrilateral data, highlighting the need for adapted reconstruction techniques.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and validate a new zonal reconstruction method specifically for quadrilateral geometries.
    • To improve the accuracy of surface profile reconstruction in metrology applications involving non-rectangular data.
    • To offer a more general and effective approach compared to classical zonal and interpolation-assisted methods.

    Main Methods:

    • Proposed a novel zonal method utilizing height increments to establish height-slope relations for least-squares regression.
    • Replaced intermediate slopes with height increments as the primary connector in the reconstruction equations.
    • Compared the proposed method against classical zonal methods and interpolation-assisted zonal methods through simulation and experimental validation.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed zonal method demonstrated significantly higher accuracy for integrating slopes in quadrilateral geometry.
    • Simulation and experimental results confirmed the effectiveness of the new approach.
    • The modified methods retain the advantages of classical zonal methods, including handling incomplete datasets and low computational complexity.

    Conclusions:

    • The novel zonal method based on height increments offers a superior solution for surface profile reconstruction in quadrilateral geometries.
    • This approach enhances accuracy while maintaining computational efficiency and data handling capabilities.
    • The findings are crucial for advancing metrology techniques in applications involving complex surface geometries.
