A Contribution to the Development of Angle-Resolving Diffused Light Sensors for Characterizing Surfaces (Ein Beitrag zur Entwicklung von winkelaufloessenden Streulichtsensoren fuer die Oberflaechencharakterisierung)

Abstract

Diffused light processes have been particularly effective for the quality control of surfaces-from atom-sized surfaces to sections of topography. The purpose of this dissertation is to create an angle-resolving sensor for measuring diffused light. An optical fiber diffused light sensor based on the patent of Rothe and Riedel is developed further and a new planar diffused light sensor is also developed. One area of emphasis involves experiments to solve the problem of inverse diffusion.
