Abstract:
Conditions for the formation of a quasi-regular interference pattern in the speckle-modulated radiation reflected from a rough transparent layer irradiated by a focused laser beam are found. A laser method for determining the optical thickness of the transparent coating deposited onto the rough surface is proposed.
