Abstract in another language
The measurement of surface vibrations with small amplitudes is often accomplished using interferometric techniques. For a good local resolution of the vibration amplitudes, the laser beam has to be focused on the surface through a high magnification lens. Owing to the small depth of focus of this lens, its distance to the surface has to be controlled accurately and precisely. In order to get rid of the frequency shifting parts of a heterodyne interferometer and to simultaneously eliminate the effects of noise sources such as fluctuations in the surface reflectivity of the device under test, we use a homodyne setup with additional path length modulation. The sensitivity of the setup is increased by quadrature interferometry, i. e., the synchronous measurement of the intensities detected by two photodiodes. We also present a signal processing technique for the control of the distance between lens and surface; this makes sure that the laser beam is optimally focused onto the surface and leads to a high overall signal-to-noise ratio.
