Abstract

In this paper authors show the application of low coherence interferometry and optical coherence tomography with non-Gaussian light source, which are applicable in simultaneous measurement of micromembrane and detection of layers deposited on silicon wafer. The exemplary measurement results obtained with laboratory setup are presented.
