提出了一种基于单元件干涉的用于检测透明介质平整度和均匀性的干涉仪.该干涉仪的核心元件是一个菱形分光棱镜.激光光源的平面波光束的一半光束透过待测样品,另一半光束直接透过空气,然后分别入射到菱形分光棱镜的两垂直面并在分光面相遇、相干.通过旋转待测样品改变相干的两束光光程差,从而使干涉条纹发生移动.形成的相干光被分光板分成两束,一束进入光电探测器用于探测干涉条纹移动数的整数部分,另一束则进入电荷耦合探测器用于采集干涉条纹图来计算干涉条纹移动数的小数部分.通过计算条纹移动数反推出光程差的变化量,再结合折射率或样品厚度信息则可以计算出样品厚度或折射率的分布,从而检测出透明介质的平行度和均匀性.模拟仿真和光学实验均证明了本方法的可行性、准确性和稳定性.

英文摘要：

The transparent plates（such as organic glass,plastic plate） are widely used in the construction industry,high-tech products and scientific research applications,and its parallelism and uniformity measurement in the manufacture and quality control become more and more inevitable.Interferometer is a label-free,high-precision,and high-efficient device that can be used in many fields.According to a single-element interferometer,we demonstrate a measurement for the parallelism and uniformity of transparent medium.Beam-splitter cube is a key component.Half of plane wave laser source passes through the measured medium and the remaining half directly passes through the air,then these two halves with different optical paths meet in the beam-splitter cube.The parallelism or uniformity is determined by calculating interference fringe shift number during rotating the measured sample.The coherent beam is divided into two parts by a beam-splitter,one passes through the lens and then arrives at a photoelectric counter,and the other arrives at the observation plane of the charge-coupled device.The photoelectric counter is used to count the integer part of fringe shift number during rotating the sample; and the decimal part can be detected by calculating the phase difference of the two interferograms captured before and after rotation.The measurement principle of the proposed device is analyzed in detail,and the numerical simulations of the fringe shift number and the gray level changing with the sample rotation angle,the thickness and the refractive index of the sample are carried out.The simulation results show that the bigger the rotation angle,thickness and refractive index of the sample,the greater the fringe shift number will be.Therefore,the measurement accuracy can be improved by increasing the rotation angle and the thickness of the sample.In addition,we also simulate the measurement processes of two kinds of samples,which are unparallel and inhomogeneous transparent plates.The simulation results prove the feasibilit
