Abstract

This paper presents an uncertainty budget of measurement on the optical phase on the basis of a metrological analysis inspired from the “GUM” approach [GUM, Guide to the expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (ISBN 92-67-20188-9, 1993)]. This budget takes account of the procedure implemented in calibrating the phase-shifting device and in the actual phase measurement. This study leads to deriving an estimation of the standard uncertainty in measuring the optical path difference at approximately $\lambda/98$. This value agrees with a purely experimental estimate [F. Taillade, Association de la shearographie et des ondes de Lamb pour la détection rapide et quantitative des délaminages, Ph.D. thesis, Technical Note ONERA, NT 2001-3, 2001], which led to a standard uncertainty of roughly $\lambda/108$.
