Development of in-process measurement techniques for optical quality and position of elements in small integrated optical systems

Objective

The objectives of the project are:

- the development of in-process test techniques for the surface quality of small optical components with nanometer accuracy;

- the mutual positioning of these components with sub-micron accuracy in a system to operate within the production environment.

The components that will be considered are: lenses and reflectors with aspherical, rotationally symmetric surfaces, moulds for producing aspherical lenses, and relief holograms both in reflection and in transmission. Combination of aspherical surfaces and relief holograms will also be studied.

Status:
The work is in progress.
