Reflectance systems and methods are described that use information of an intermediate reference signal to continuously monitor, detect and/or compensate for drift in a metrology system. The intermediate reference signal is present regardless of whether a sample is being measured. The reflectance system comprises components including a transmission element coupled to a sample area and a receiver. The transmission element is configured to route signals between components of the system. The signals include an illumination signal, and a sample signal resulting from interaction of the illumination signal with a sample when the sample is present in the sample area. The signals also include the reference signal that results from interaction of the illumination signal with one or more components of the system.
