Additional information
This paper described a surface topography measuring apparatus based upon optical fibre and wavelength scanning using a tuneable laser. This was an advance on the previous paper (Rev. Sci. Instr. 79(2), 023109) with an active vibration compensation system being found necessary to stabilise the apparatus for measurement. This work was part a PhD project and which gained the student the award: Vice-Chancellor’s Award of Postgraduate Research Student of the Year 2009. The project was supported by an EPSRC Industrial CASE studentship. The concepts generated by this work subsequently formed part of a successful ERC grant proposal: Surfund 228117.
