    摘要: A device for the inspection of one or more movable surfaces (8), more in particular for the inspection of a rotating surface (8) of a wafer, which device includes at least one light source (1), and a beam splitter (4) for splitting the light beam that into a reference beam (6) that is applied to a detector (16) and a measuring beam (5) that is applied to the surface (surfaces) and contains at least one component in the direction of movement (U) of the respective surface or in the opposite direction. The light (15) that is reflected by the surface (8) has, upon detection of a defect (14), a frequency (v') that has been shifted relative to the measuring beam (5) and on which the reference beam (6) can be superposed. The device includes an evaluation unit (29) for determining the velocity (v) of a defect (14) on the surface (8) from the shifted frequency (v') and for determining the position of the defect on the surface therefrom.

    摘要: An optical scanning device 1 detects an information signal from an optical record carrier 2 using differential interference contrast. Two radiation beams 13a, 13b are generated and focused to two distinct spots 15a, 15b respectively displaced along a data track on the information layer of an optical record carrier. The relative positions of the spots in lands and pits can generate a path length difference between the reflected beams 17a, 17b. This path length difference causes the beams to interfere either constructively or destructively, depending on the relative land/pit position in the data track of the spots. This interference causes a detectable signal to be generated, the signal being representative of a transition from a pit to a land on the information layer 4 or vice versa.

    摘要: An optical scanning device is for scanning an information layer (2) with a radiation beam (4). It includes: a radiation source (6) for providing said radiation beam, a lens system (7) for transforming said radiation beam to a scanning spot (17) on said information layer, and a wavefront modifier arranged between said radiation source and said scanning spot. The modifier including two elements (301, 302) having each an aspheric surface (301b, 302a) and being mutually linearly movable for introducing a wavefront modification in said second radiation beam. According to the invention, the aspheric surfaces are shaped so that: a first mutual linear displacement of the elements (301, 302) introduces a first wavefront modification (Wa) along a first axis (XO) in said second radiation beam, and a second mutual linear displacement of the elements introduces a second wavefront modification (Wb) along said second axis (YO) in said second radiation beam.

    摘要: A lighting unit (1), comprising a bowl shaped reflector (6), and a plurality of point shaped light sources (2) arranged inside the reflector. The unit further comprises a mixing chamber (4) in which the point shaped light sources (2) are arranged, and a scattering layer (5) covering the mixing chamber (4). The scattering layer (5) is partially reflecting and partially transmitting, thereby ensuring that light emitted by the point shaped light sources (2) is mixed in the mixing chamber (4) before reaching the reflector. This allows light emitted from the mixing chamber via the reflector to be conceived as one beam. In use, light from the point shaped light sources may be reflected by the scattering layer and then scattered by the scattering layer so that the reflector generates a beam similar to a halogen beam.

    摘要: An optical compensator for use in an optical scanning device for scanning a first optical record carrier (3') having an information layer (2') at a first information layer depth d and a second optical record carrier (3') having an information layer (2') at a second, different information layer depth d2. The scanning of the first and second optical record carrier is effected using a scanning spot (16) formed on the information layer by a first radiation beam having a first wavelength and a second radiation beam having a second, different wavelength respectively. The optical compensator includes a substantially circular phase structure having an annular zone arranged in the path of the first radiation beam and the second radiation beam. The annular zone is adapted for imparting a wavefront modification to said first radiation beam causing destructive interference over the area of the scanning spot (16) for radiation incident on said annular zone; and a wavefront modification to said second radiation beam for compensating spherical aberration. A further aspect of the present invention relates to an optical element for defining the numerical aperture of a radiation beam. The optical compensator or optical element can be used for a two- or three-wavelength system. The invention also discloses an optical scanning head, and an optical scanning device using the optical compensator. The invention also relates to an optical scanning head and an optical scanning device.
