Abstract
We present a diffraction grating interferometer of large equivalent wavelength specially designed for flatness testing of rough surfaces. Two transmission diffraction gratings are illuminated on the object under test by use of two measurement beams with different angles of incidence, which yields a large equivalent wavelength. This interferometer design minimizes unnecessary diffraction rays and the systematic error caused by the diffraction gratings, and provides a large working distance and easy alignment. To improve the measurement accuracy, phase shifting technique is applied and the equivalent wavelength error caused by defocus is calibrated. Test results obtained from mirror surfaces and machined rough surfaces are discussed.
