Zusammenfassung:Disclosed is a wedge arrangement comprising a plurality of wedge elements, arranged around an optical axis, the plurality of wedge elements comprising at least a first wedge element, a second wedge element and a third wedge element; wherein: said first wedge element comprises a first optical surface and second optical surface, wherein the first optical surface is planar and non-perpendicular to the optical axis and the second optical surface is non-planar such that said first wedge element has a non-linear thickness change; said second wedge element comprises a third optical surface and fourth optical surface which are each planar and are non-parallel; and said third wedge element comprises a fifth optical surface and sixth optical surface wherein the fifth optical surface is planar and non-perpendicular to the optical axis. Also disclosed is a metrology device which uses such a wedge arrangement in determining focus of measurement radiation during a measurement.
