The present disclosure relates to a surface profile measurement
system and method. The surface profile measurement
system comprises a displacement stage for carrying a
reference sample and a sample and moving the
reference sample and the sample. A
white light interferometry module is configured to acquire a sequence of
white light interference images at each measurement position on the surface of the sample to extract initial height data of different measurement points at each measurement position. A
laser interferometry positioning module is configured to acquire a positioning interference image of the corresponding measurement position while the
white light interferometry module acquires the sequence of white light interference images. A host computer is in
signal connection with the displacement stage, the
laser interferometry positioning module and the
white light interferometry module, respectively. The host computer compensates the initial height data corresponding to the corresponding measurement points based on the positional offset of the positioning interference image of each measurement position relative to a reference interference image to obtain the height measurement value of each
measurement point on the surface of the sample in the scanning direction, thereby eliminating the defocus error of the displacement stage.
