Field Guide to Interferometric Optical Testing (SPIE Field Guide Series Vol. FG10)

A distillation of Dr. Wyant's course at University of Arizona, this Field Guide covers the key fundamentals of interferometry, types of interferometers and interferograms, concepts of phase-shifting interferometry, long-wavelength interferometry, testing of aspheric surfaces, measurement of surface microstructure, flat and curved surface testing, and absolute measurements.<p> <b>Contents</b> <p> - Glossary <br> - Fundamentals of Interferometry <br> - Interferometers <br> - Interferograms <br> - Phase-Shifting Interferometry <br> - Surface Microstructure <br> - Flat Surface Testing <br> - Curved Space Testing <br> - Absolute Measurements <br> - Asphere Testing <br> - Appendices <br> - Equation Summary <br> - Bibliography <br> - Index
