Abstract
We report on the development of a holographic camera capable of measuring nanometer-scale surface features. The system is based on a modified off-axis Mach-Zehnder interferometer and was optimized to provide high-quality interference patterns. Fast imaging was implemented with a time-gated intensified CCD camera directly facing the surface of the object. By increasing the intensifier gain, holographic images with good contrast could be captured within 1 ns. We tested the ability of the camera to measure nanometer-scale height differences using a patterned USAF target. The depth resolution of the camera was estimated to be better than 10 nm. We also found that both the object-CCD distance and the angle between the object and reference beams had significant impact on the quality of the reconstructed surface profiles. Potential applications of the camera include measurement of tissue surface displacements for non-contact photoacoustic imaging.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
