    摘要: Interferometer displacement measurement system and method are disclosed, wherein, a measurement light is processed by a first polarization splitting prism, a first ¼ wave plate, a first splitting prism, an optical waveguide component and a reflector, and then is returned to a first photoeletric detector and a second photoeletric detector. The reference light is processed by a second polarization splitting prism, a second ¼ wave plate, a second splitting prism and a reflecting mirror, and then is returned to the first photoeletric detector and the second photoeletric detector. The first photoeletric detector forms a measurement signal according to the processed measurement light and the processed reference light, and the second photoeletric detector forms a reference signal according to the processed measurement light and the processed reference light. Displacement information of the object to be detected is determined according to the measurement signal and the reference signal.

    摘要: Amplitude decorrelation measurement is sensitive to transverse flow and immune to phase noise in comparison to Doppler and other phase-based approaches. However, the high axial resolution of OCT makes it very sensitive to the pulsatile bulk motion noise in the axial direction, resulting in unacceptable signal to noise ratio (SNR). To overcome this limitation, a novel OCT angiography technique based on the decorrelation of OCT signal amplitude due to flow was created. The full OCT spectrum can be split into several narrower spectral bands, resulting in the OCT resolution cell in each band being isotropic and less susceptible to axial motion noise. Inter-B-scan decorrelation can be determined using the narrower spectral bands separately and then averaged. Recombining the decorrelation images from the spectral bands yields angiograms that use the full information in the entire OCT spectral range. Such images showed significant improvement of SNR for both flow detection and connectivity of microvascular networks when compared to other amplitude-decorrelation techniques. Further, creation of isotropic resolution cells can be useful for quantifying flow having equal sensitivity to axial and transverse flow. Such improved non-invasive imagery can be useful in the diagnosis and management of a variety of diseases.

    摘要: A multi-mode frequency sweeping interferometer has a single measurement light producing device configured to produce a coherent light source consisting of a single light beam. The single measurement light producing device transitions the single light beam between a fixed light beam and a scanning wavelength light beam. A primary beam splitter produces a first reference beam and a first measurement beam from said single light beam. The first reference beam is configured to travel a fixed path length to a primary reference reflector and the first measurement beam is configured to travel to and from a moveable reflective target over an unknown path length. A first interferometer is created by interfering the first reference beam with the first measurement beam and one or more optoelectronic devices may be configured to determine a measured distance to the movable reflective target.

    摘要: A velocity-compensated frequency sweeping interferometer has a single measurement light producing device that produces a coherent light source consisting of a single light beam. The light producing device produces a scanning wavelength light beam. A primary beam splitter produces a first reference beam and a first measurement beam from said single light beam. The first reference beam travels a fixed path length to a primary reference reflector and the first measurement beam travels to and from a moveable reflective target over an unknown path length. A distance measurement interferometer is created by interfering the first reference beam with the first measurement beam. A return frequency measurement interferometer provides a measure of frequency of the return beam from the target which, when compared with the frequency of the outgoing beam, allows for velocity compensation of the target.

    摘要: An optical measuring device is provided. An actuator of a reference mirror set drives a reference mirror to move back and forth at a scan velocity. A first light source module transmits a first light beam to an optical coupling module transmitting two parts of the first light beam respectively to an examinee object and the reference mirror set. The first light beam then is reflected by the examinee object and reference mirror set and then transmitted to the optical coupling module and the processing unit. The second light source module transmits a second light beam to the examinee object. Then the second light beam is reflected and then transmitted to the second sensing unit. The second sensing unit provides a sensing signal to the processing unit which accordingly provides a value of the relative velocity. The thickness is calculated according to the relative velocity and the scan velocity.
