Abstract

An inspection system includes optical components for operating the inspection system in an interference fringe imaging mode and a microscope imaging mode. The inspection system further includes at least one optical light source configured to emit a first wavelength of light to operate the inspection system in the interference fringe imaging mode and configure to emit a second wavelength of light to operate the inspection system in the microscope mode. The first wavelength of light is different from the second wavelength of light.
