The work presented in this dissertation can be subdivided into two parts. The first part illustrates the novel use of a 37 actuator segmented deformable mirror for the creation of optical vortex beams ranging in topological charge from 1 to 10. Th...

In the field of optical metrology, there are many existing techniques for measurement of the surface profile or film thickness of a sample of interest. However, many of these common techniques break down when there exists a high level of noise in ...
