Static and Dynamic Calibration for Coherence Imaging Measurement Systems and Methods

Abstract:

Systems and methods for static and dynamic calibration may be used to provide alignment of a measurement beam from a coherence imaging (CI) measurement system relative to a processing beam from a material processing system. In these systems and methods, a calibration measurement output may be obtained from the CI measurement system and/or from an auxiliary sensor. Future measurements performed by the CI measurement system may be modified based on, at least in part, the calibration measurement output.
