Abstract

Optical microscopy is perhaps one of the oldest means for surface examination of samples. The ready availability of lasers has opened up a host of new applications which would have been difficult to envisage before. These arise either because of the high power densities that can be generated from a laser source or from the coherence. The author discusses applications based on both characteristics. and the stages of development which have led from the idea of a simple Michelson type interferometer to some of the more recent developments of heterodyne interference microscopy.
