Global White Light Interferometry (WLI) Industry Growth and Trends Forecast to 2031

Summary

The White Light Interferometry (WLI) industry can be broken down into several segments, With 2 Lens, With 3-4 Lens, etc.

The white light interferometer uses the white light interference technology as the principle. The light emitted by the light source is collimated by a beam splitter and split into two beams after being expanded and collimated. One beam is reflected by the measured surface, and the other beam is reflected by the reference mirror. Eventually convergence and interference occur, the microscope converts the topographical features of the measured surface into interference fringe signals, and measures the three-dimensional topography of the surface by measuring changes in the interference fringe.
