    摘要: A measuring method capable of automatically analyzing quantitatively the inner state of a disk is provided. Linearly polarized light from a light source enters a retarder to produce a desired elliptically polarized state. The elliptically polarized light is then passed through a half-wave plate to rotate the direction of a principal axis of the ellipse. The light is expanded into two dimensions by lens systems and to obtain planar information, and is further transmitted through a disk substrate so that the birefringence of a specimen, which depends on an inner stress state and a polymer orientation state, changes the phase of the light. The light wave with its phase changed is passed through a polarizer arranged perpendicular to the principal axis of the retarder. The CCD detects the light wave as a light intensity.

    摘要: A grating (3) is disposed to face the measurement target surface of a measurement target object (11). A light source (1) irradiates the grating (3) with illumination light. A camera (6) captures a moire fringe image formed on the grating (3) by light passing through the grating 3 and reflected by the measurement target surface. A moving means (9) changes the distance (H) between the grating 3 and the measurement target surface. An analyzing means (8) performs an analysis process of obtaining 3-D shape information of the measurement target surface from the image picked up by the camera (6) in at least two cases in which the distance (H) is set to different values, and obtains, on the basis of the 3-D shape information in each case and the distance H, true 3-D shape information from which the measurement error caused by the inclination of the measurement target surface is eliminated.

    摘要: In an optical isolator device comprising a plurality of optical isolator elements each of which comprises a pair of polarizers and a magneto-optical element disposed between said polarizers, the optical isolator elements have element cutoff wavelength bands which are different from one another. The optical isolator elements are arranged in series with an optical axis in common. Each element cutoff wavelength band is defined by an element cutoff central wavelength for a return light beam. The optical isolator device has a device cutoff wavelength band for the return light beam that is defined by a device cutoff central wavelength. When the optical isolator elements are equal in number to two, both of the optical isolator elements have a common wavelength area where the element cutoff wavelength bands overlap each other. One of the optical isolator elements has an element cutoff central wavelength shorter than the device cutoff central wavelength, while another of the optical isolator elements has another element cutoff central wavelength longer than the device cutoff central wavelength.
