Title:
REFERENCE WAVE GENERATING OPTICAL SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2002006209
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To enable changing a radius of curvature at emitting reference plane wave in a wide range while keeping high accuracy, and also, to enable measuring an object to be inspected at an optional position dispensing with a large working space.

The system is provided with a 1st lens group arranged on the incident side of laser light emitted from a laser interferometer main body and a 2nd lens group arranged on the exit side, and also, the 1st lens group 1 and the 2nd lens group 2 are arranged so that a metric space D6 between them may be varied, and the system is constituted so that the curvature of the coherent spherical wave projected from the 2nd lens group 2 may be optionally and continuously changed.
