  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. Optical heterodyne interferometry is widely used in the measurements of surface topography. In this paper, a novel polarized optical heterodyne interferometer associated with a differential amplifier is proposed. A surface topography of a holographic grating is successfully scanned.
