The Meaning and Measure of Vertical Resolution in Optical Surface Topography Measurement

Peter J. de Groot
- 05 Jan 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the measurement noise was found experimentally to be 0.072 nm for a 1 s data acquisition using a surface topography repeatability test, which determines the random height-equivalent noise level for an individual pixel in the areal surface topology map.

Noise Reduction in AC-Coupled Amplifiers

TL;DR: The quotient between the high-pass frequency of the signal bandwidth ( fL) and fc (K = fL/fc) is proposed as quantitative design parameter to reduce the additional noise contributed by a first-order ac-coupling network as compared with dc coupling.

Definition and evaluation of topography measurement noise in optical instruments

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results from a commercial phase-shifting interference microscope showing an RMS measurement noise of 003nm for a 1-s data acquisition of 1.1 million surface topography image points, after application of a 3'×3'pixel convolution filter.

A vector rubidium magnetometer

TL;DR: In this article, a version of the rubidium magnetometer has been developed which provides complete vector information of field variations without the use of artificially applied fields, where two perpendicular light beams are passed through a single vapour cell and the relative phases of the Larmor frequency modulations on the two beams determines the direction of the field, the magnitude being provided by the Larmore frequency itself.
