Metrology Testing

Opto-Alignment Technology has state-of-the-art metrology and optical test capabilities. These extensive test capabilities help ensure our continuing success in achieving the highest performance and highest quality optical assemblies. 

Optical surface accuracy and lens performance qualification

  • Zygo® and Phase Shift interferometers to measure surface figure errors and transmitted wavefront errors, along with a comprehensive range of transmission spheres and transmission flats when testing spherical and aspheric surfaces or optical systems
  • Optikos™ MTF test bench configurable for finite or infinite conjugates, and on/off-axis testing from the near-UV to near-IR.

Dimensional and optical cosmetic qualification

  • Laser interferometric height gauge for dimensional measurements, including lens center thickness and assembly airspace measurements to an accuracy of +/-0.5 micron.
  • Davidson autocollimator for measurement of system alignment and parallelism
  • MIL Spec compatible Scratch-Dig Standards

Other qualification

  • In addition to the above equipment, Opto-Alignment Technology has designed and developed a wide range of custom, NIST-traceable test equipment and methods to meet customers’ unique requirements.
