The +/-first-order beams diffracted by the first grating produce parallel fringes of about 50-µm spacing on an object surface. By using the second grating, we eliminate the parallel fringes and extract a phase distribution produced by the surface profile of the object. Moreover, the vibration of the second grating of a small size enables us to use the sinusoidal phase-modulating interferometry. Measurement resolution is higher than 0.3 µm at the equivalent wavelength of 35 µm.}, pages = {043601-1--043601-6}, title = {Two-grating interferometer with sinusoidal phase modulation for surface profile measurement}, volume = {44}, year = {2005} }
