Abstract
To enable adjustable sensitivity in lateral shearing interferometry, a tunable snapshot phase-shifting lateral shearing interferometry system based on a liquid crystal polarization grating (SPS-LCPG-LSI) was developed. However, in high-precision surface measurements, system phase-shift errors introduced by the LCPG and the pixelated phase mask (PPM) can significantly affect measurement accuracy. To ensure precision, the sources of various system phase-shift errors in the SPS-LCPG-LSI system were analyzed. A Dual-Quality map-guided (Dual-QMG) ellipse fitting algorithm was developed to correct phase-shift errors under varying error magnitudes and intensity distributions. Simulations and experimental results validated the accuracy and feasibility of the Dual-QMG correction algorithm.
