Abstract :
This work proposes the method of full-field low-coherent interferometry for studying the surface texture and internal structure of the dry blood plasma drops. A full-field white-light interferometer based on the Linnik interference microscope scheme is utilized in the experiment. The advantages of this method besides nondestructive imaging include high resolution due to the thermal white light source and high speed of visualization.
