  • Optical arrangement for performing null testing of aspheric surfaces including reflective/diffractive optics
    Patent number: 5410408
    Abstract: An improved null optical testing arrangement (22) for null testing aspheric surfaces of optics includes a reflective/diffractive null optical component (24). The reflective/diffractive null optical component (24) provides a reflective/diffractive surface (30) that is easily qualified as a null testing optical arrangement. The reflective/diffractive surface (30) of the null optic (24) generates a reference wavefront which can be completely characterized by measuring the diameters of diffractive rings with an interferometer (42).
