We present a Mirau-type coherence scanning interferometer (CSI) with an oscillating reference mirror and an integrated interferometric distance sensor (IDS) sharing the optical path with the CSI. The IDS works simultaneously with the CSI and measures the distance changes during the depth scanning process with high temporal resolution. The additional information acquired by the IDS is used to correct the CSI data disturbed by unwanted distance changes due to environmental vibrations subsequent to the measurement. Due to the fixed reference mirror in commercial Mirau objectives, a Mirau attachment (MA) comprising an oscillating reference mirror is designed and built. Compared to our previous systems based on the Michelson and the Linnik interferometer, the MA represents a novel solution that completes the range of possible applications. Due to its advantages, the Mirau setup is the preferred and most frequently used interferometer type in industry. Therefore, the industrial use is ensured by this development. We investigate the functioning of the system and the capability of the vibration compensation by several measurements on various surface topographies.
