Abstract :
The refractive index and the physical thickness of an optical substance have been measured simultaneously with the interferometry based on optical coherence tomography. Full-field OCT and Fourier domain OCT are utilized to measure various samples including a solid droplet, thin film, plate, liquid, and even gaseous sample.
