Abstract:
Single-shot digital holographic shape measurements of high-speed MEMS using femtosecond laser pulses are reported. To perform contouring of very fast moving objects the simultaneous generation of at least two spectrally separated ultrashort pulses is required. A chirped-pulse Ti:sapphire laser amplifier was modified to emit two femtosecond pulses of high spectral contrast at a separation of 10-15 nm. A Michelson-type interferometer was employed to perform stroboscopic two-wavelength-contouring. To record the two holograms of the MEMS with a resonance frequency of 0.5 kHz at once a multiplexing technique is applied. The phases of the holograms and the difference phases are numerically calculated. The resulting image contains a fringe pattern which allows to deduce the contour lines of the topology of the MEMS. Measurements of dynamic deformation at the MEMS resonance frequency are presented.
