Phase change on reflection considered of the polarization in white-light interferometer

백색광 주사 간섭계에서 편광을 고려한 반사시 위상 변화

The phase change upon reflection from target surfaces in white-light interferometer induces measurement errors when target surfaces are composed of dissimilar materials. We prove that this phase change on reflection considered of the polarization of the white-light causes the shift of both envelope peak position and fringe peak position of several tens of nanometer. In addition, we propose a new equation of white-light interference fringe pertinent to the polarization of source.
