A study of measurement technology for ultra-precision freeform surfaces

Research output: Journal article publicationJournal articleAcademic researchpeer-review

Abstract

Ultra-precision freeform surfaces have become widely used in advanced optics manufacture. Although these surfaces can be fabricated by ultra-precision freeform machining technology with sub-micrometer form accuracy and surface finish in nanometer range, our current understanding on the evaluation of surface quality of these surfaces is still far from perfect. In this paper, a study of measurement technology for ultra-precision freeform surfaces is presented.
