3D Super-Resolution Optical Profiling Using Microsphere Enhanced Mirau Interferometry

Abstract We present quantitative three dimensional images of grooves on a writable Blu-ray Disc based on a single objective Mirau type interferometric microscope, enhanced with a microsphere which is considered as a photonic nanojet source. Along the optical axis the resolution of this microsphere a...
