Ballard, Advisory Editor; from the dj: "Electronic detectors, laser sources and/or holograms, and computers have replaced such relatively simple optical tests as the Fizeau, the Foucault, and the Ronchi. Opticians, no longer responsible for testing components and systems, must now establish a rapport with the latest precision techniques as well as with the technicians. This book brings together descriptions of all tests useful in the optical shop for testing optical components and systems. It assists opticians and technicians in establishing a dialogue for comparing techniques so that the most advantageous ones can be chosen. Book condition: Cover corners show a bit of minor rubbing; Dj has four circa 0.25 inch long edge tears, and other minor edge-wear blemishes.

About this title

Synopsis

Fringe scanning techniques, now renamed heterodyning or phase shift interferometry, are covered in a completely rewritten chapter. New chapters have been added to cover wavefront fitting and evaluation as well as holographic and Moire methods. The chapter on parameter measurements has been completely rewritten and an appendix added suggesting appropriate tests for typical optical surfaces.
