Abstract
Two laser diode-based interferometers are described. The first one, which is only briefly described here, is a two-wavelength scanning spot interferometer employing two laserdiodes. This interferometer has been used for surface contouring with micrometer resolution. The second interferometer, which will be emphasised in this paper, is a heterodyne interferometer. This interferometer is particularly useful for surface profiling with nanometer resolution.
