Abstract
This paper describes a new type of interferometer which may be used for 2D and 3D surface profiling of optically rough surfaces. The system uses a wide band, low coherence light for this purpose. The brightness of the interference fringes falls from a peak to zero on profile amplitude differences which are greater than the coherence length of the light used. The brightness variations within the interference packet are digitally signal processed to extract surface position information.
