Abstract
In the Pole Tip Recession (PTR) measurement using a Phase Shifting Interferometer (PSI), the phase shift due to the reflection at the air/thin film/dissimilar substrate interfaces will certainly cause incorrect PTR measurement. In this paper the effects of the variations in the refractive index of the materials and of coating thickness on the PTR measurement have been analyzed, and the PTR offsets and their errors have been calculated.
