Optical frequency comb interference profilometry using compressive sensing



Abstract: We describe a new optical system using an ultra-stable modelocked frequency comb femtosecond laser and compressive sensing to measure an object’s surface profile. The ultra-stable frequency comb laser was used to precisely measure an object with a large depth, over a wide dynamic range. The compressive sensing technique was able to obtain the spatial information of the object with two single-pixel fast photo-receivers, with no mechanical scanning and fewer measurements than the number of sampling points. An optical experiment was performed to verify the advantages of the proposed method.
