Abstract

We propose a general method of designing phase-shifting algorithms for grating lateral shearing interferometry. The algorithms compensate for the zeroth-order effect error and phase-shifting error in varying degrees. We derive a general expression of the phase-shifting algorithm in grating lateral shearing interferometer and introduce the corresponding design method. Based on the expression and method, four phase-shifting algorithms are designed with different phase-shifting errors to obtain high measurement accuracy. A new 13-frame phase-shifting algorithm is designed and simulated with a large zeroth-order effect. Simulation results verify the general expression and the corresponding design method.
