Abstract

A combining light emitted from a measurement point of an object to be measured into one parallel light beam by combining optical system; dividing, by phase shifter, parallel light beam emitted from combining optical system into first and second light beam, emitting first and second light beam toward light-receiving face while providing an optical path length difference between the first and second light beam, and causing the first and second light beam to planarly enter the light-receiving face so that at least a part of an incident region of first light beam on the light-receiving face and at least a part of an incident region of second light beam overlap with each other; and obtaining an interferogram at measurement point based on intensity distribution of light in a region where an incident region of the first and second light beam on light-receiving face overlap, and acquiring spectrum by Fourier-transforming interferogram.
