Abstract :
We present a frequency comb based interferometry with a broadband comb light source and a line-type image sensor for profilometry and optical tomography. The cross-sectional images were captured by varying the frequency interval of 25 GHz without mechanical shift. The resolution in depth direction was 35 mum.
