Effects of phase change on reflection in phase-measuring interference microscopy

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We show by analytical and numerical calculations that the phase change on reflection that occurs in interference microscopy is almost independent of the numerical aperture of the objective. The shift of the microscope interferogram response due to the phase change on reflection, however, increases with the numerical aperture. Measurements of the interferogram shift are made with a Linnik interference microscope equipped with various numerical-aperture objectives and are reported and compared with theory.
