Abstract

En 中文
Coherence scanning interferometry (CSI) with low-magnification objectives enables large field-of-view measurements with high axial resolution, but suffers from limited lateral resolution, leading to the loss of critical mid-spatial-frequency topography details. This paper proposes a spatial frequency response (SFR) based topography details restoration method for CSI in the frequency domain. The SFR is calculated from the calibrated three-dimensional transfer function and the corresponding imaging model. A frequency-dependent compensation factor derived from the SFR is then applied to the measured spectrum to recover the attenuated components. A noise reference surface is introduced to moderate the compensation at frequencies where the measured signal approaches the noise background, thereby preventing noise-driven artefacts. Simulations and experiments on a self-developed CSI system show improved agreement of compensated 20 × results with measurements from higher resolution reference instruments within the effective band, while maintaining stable behavior at higher frequencies.
