Features
Successfully used in the most demanding applications in optical metrology, laser diagnostics and adaptive optics, the LIFT SWIR 160 performs multiple functions:
- Direct wavefront acquisition of highly converging and diverging beams with an accuracy of λ/100 rms, including astigmatism and high-order aberration, and many other parameters, making for the perfect instrument for any complex optics alignment.
- Beam collimation with sensitivity > 1 km radius of curvature
- Control and adjustment of axial laser beam deviation > 3μrad rms
- Complex optics characterization in single or double path configuration in combination with R-FLEX2 metrology systems or RFLEX LA metrology platforms.
- 3D MTF measurements
- Simultaneous and independent measurements of phase and intensity (patented)
Applications
- Optical manufacturing metrology
- Complex optics Characterization
- Middle frequencies mirror surface characterization
