354 results about "Reference beam" patented technology

A reference beam is a laser beam used to read and write holograms. It is one of two laser beams used to create a hologram. In order to read a hologram out, some aspects of the reference beam (namely its angle of incidence, beam profile and wavelength) must be reproduced exactly as when it was used to write the hologram. As a result, usually reference beams are Gaussian beams or spherical wave beams (beams that radiate from a single point) which are fairly easy to reproduce.

The optical system directs the first scattered beam and the second scattered beam from the target structure to the detector system. A detector system captures the interference pattern and outputs a measurement signal. The first scattered beam, the second scattered beam, and the first reference beam generate an interference pattern. The processor analyzes the measurement signal to determine a characteristic of the target structure.
