Modern Interferometric Optical TestingFrontiers in Optics Abstract: This course describes the basic interferometry
techniques used in the evaluation of optical components and optical systems.
The course will cover interferogram interpretation, computer analysis and
phase-shifting interferometry, as well as various commonly used
wavefront-measuring interferometers such as the Fizeau, Twyman-Green,
scatterplate and Smartt point diffraction. The instructor will describe the
testing of mirrors and lenses. The use of
null lenses and computer generated holograms for the testing of aspheric
surfaces will be described. The interferometric measurement of surface
microstructure will be discussed. Techniques will
be given for determining absolute measurements of flats, spheres and surface
roughness. The course will cover state-of-the-art direct phase measurement
interferometers.
