OBJECT CHARACTERISTIC MEASUREMENT METHOD AND SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention provides a method for measuring object characteristics, wherein the method is capable of overcoming the interference induced bye the phase difference of the background with respect to the measuring system so as to measure the tiny characteristics such as the retardance or azimuth angle of an object accurately. The method is capable of obtaining two sets of light intensity images having retardance of background and the object respectively by simultaneously rotating the retarding elements and analyzer in various rotating angle combinations, and analyzing and calculating upon the polarized light intensities of the images associated with the background and the object so as to obtain actual retardance and azimuth angle of the object without the affect of the background retardance.
