Abstract
Crystal has been widely used in optical fields. In many instances the thickness of optical axis direction of crystal as an important physical parameter needs to be confirmed, so it is necessary to accurately measure the crystal thickness. In this paper we propose to measure the crystal thickness by using the birefringence characteristics of crystal and analyze the feasibility in theory. Furthermore we validated the realization process of the measuring system and the algorithm of calculating crystal thickness by experiments. The repeatable measuring precision was several nanometers.
