PhaseCam NIR Near Infrared Interferometers -1

PhaseCam > NIR systems are compact, lightweight, dynamic laser interferometers operating at wavelengths of 1.053 εm to 1.55 m. With simple, manual controls these systems are ideal for long optical path-length measurement of large, focal optical systems such as concave telescope mirrors and lens systems, and for testing small aperture afocal components such as flat mirrors and collimators.PhaseCam NIR systems incorporate a single camera, high-speed optical phase sensor that makes a wavefront measurement in less than 30 microseconds՗over 5000 times faster than a temporal phase shifting interferometer. Because acquisition time is so short, the PhaseCams can be used under almost any conditions without vibration isolation or turbulence control. This insensitivity to environmental factors makes the PhaseCams ideally suited for use on the production floor, in clean rooms and in environmental test chambers. 4Sight wavefront analysis software features a user-friendly interface with unmatched simplicity, analysis features and graphical displays. The Measurement Console display aids alignment and execution of single, averaged, burst or continuous data acquisition. The Measurement Flow interface lets you visualize the entire measurement data flow, from raw acquisition through masking, reference subtraction, terms removal, etc. The unique Measurement Stack enables complex data manipulation and comparison. Zernike, Seidel, geometric and diffraction analyses are easy to perform. Comprehensive data sharing capabilities let you read, write, save and print from most file types, including MetroPro IDL > , MatLab > ή , Opticode > ,Vision > ή , HDF5 > and CodeV > ή . Generating phase movies to characterize deforming surfaces and moving parts is simple and straightforward. > Numerous accessories and options are available including diverger lenses and beam expanders. > The PhaseCam NIR is a turnkey instrument that includes the interferometer, 4Sight advanced wavefront analysis software, and complete, high-speed computer system. Samples with any reflectivity from 1% to 100% can be measured with a simple adjustment. > PhaseCam is a registered trademark of 4D Technology Corporation.
