Optical homogeneity measurement of parallel plates by wavelength-tuning interferometry using nonuniform fast Fourier
Abstract:
Wavelength-tuning interferometry is commonly employed to measure the optical homogeneity of parallel plates. However, the nonlinearity of phase shifts caused by wavelength tuning errors and environmental vibration leads to a spatially uniform error in the calculated phase distribution. Herein, a wavelength-tuning interferometry method based on nonuniform fast Fourier transform (WTI-NUFFT) was developed, which solves the spectral aliasing resulting from the spatially uniform error. The characteristics of the WTI-NUFFT method were estimated through comparison with the FFT method. Both the simulated and experimental results showed that the WTI-NUFFT method can improve the accuracy of the optical homogeneity measurement of parallel plates.
