Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

Numerical simulation of the profile restoration procedure for an optical surface with scattering of radiation by nanostructures of the type of single grooves or single protrusions as well as that of a periodic “comb-like” profile is performed. A comparison of the results of the simulation with observation data obtained with the use of a modified interference microscope (micro-interferometer) is performed. The effectiveness of numerical simulation of these procedures is confirmed.
