Device and method for plane-parallel orientation of a the surface of an object to be examined in relation to a focus plane of a lens

摘要

The orientation of the surface of an object to be examined is changed by adjusting the distance thereof to an optical measuring system in a plane-parallel manner in relation to a focusing plane of the optical measuring system, enabling high speeds of examination to be obtained during examination of the extended surfaces of the object. A distance-measurement system which is mounted in an auxiliary manner with regard to the measuring head enables fluctuations in the topography inside the surface of the object to be compensated in such a way that a currently received point or area can be optically sharpened.
