Abstract

Components with freeform surface give optical designers more degrees of freedom and can reduce the size and weight of optical systems significantly. However, one cannot manufacture it, if one cannot measure it. Thus, measurement systems have to evolve simultaneously. To meet up with these highly demanded requirements, we have developed a new measurement technique for freeform specular surfaces. This measurement technique is able to detect form and mid-spatial-frequency characteristics for known and even unknown freeform surfaces.
