Apparatus for measuring two-dimensional displacement
First Claim
1. A two-dimensional displacement measuring apparatus adapted to measure a two-dimensional displacement, comprising:
- a two-dimensional diffraction unit;
a laser light source for providing an incident light;
a beam splitter for separating said incident light into at least two beams to be incident on said two-dimensional diffraction unit so as to generate a plurality of first diffracted beams and a plurality of second-order diffracted beams from the first diffraction of said beams;
a plurality of conjugate optical lenses for reflecting said first diffracted beams respectively so that said first diffracted beams return to said two-dimensional diffraction unit to generate a plurality of second diffracted beams where said second diffracted beams and said second-order diffracted beams generated as a result of the first diffraction of said beams stagger; and
a plurality of interference optical dephasing modules for receiving said second diffracted beams respectively so as to separate each of said second diffracted beams into at least two signal beams by which a two-dimensional displacement is measured.

Abstract
An apparatus for measuring a two-dimensional displacement is disclosed and includes a laser light source, a collimator lens, a beam splitter, a plurality of staggered conjugate optic lens and a plurality of interference optical dephasing modules. The laser light source provides a laser light incident on the collimator lens to generate collimated laser beams. Each of the collimated laser beams are incident on the beam splitter to be separated into two incident beams and incident on a two-dimensional diffraction unit to generate a plurality of first diffracted beams and a plurality of second-order diffracted beams. The staggered conjugate optic lens are used to reflect the first diffracted beams so that the first diffracted beams return to the two-dimensional diffraction unit to generate a plurality of second diffracted beams where the second diffracted beams and the second-order diffracted beams generated as a result of the first diffraction of the beams stagger.
