Abstract
A new type of CCD image sensor for two-dimensional synchronous detection
(“lock-in imager”) is presented. The measurement principle
allows each pixel to measure the size of the amplitude modulation,
the relative phase and the mean brightness level (background) of
an oscillating optical wave field. Design, operation and measurement
results are presented. A typical application for this sensor would
be in 3-D imaging (range measurement) using heterodyne interferometry
