摘要: Several embodiments of a microinterferometer are disclosed. A first embodiment for measuring the absolute distance to an object surface includes substrate. The also phase-sensitive, reflective diffraction grating formed on is configured reflect portion incident light and transmit second light, such that diffracted. further lens substrate focusing predetermined local distance, photo-detector receiving interference patterns produced from reflected surface.
