What it is
The Zygo Verifire XP/D is a laser interferometer used for precision optical metrology.[1]
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedThe instrument operates on the principle of interference between a reference beam and a test beam reflected from the surface under measurement.
A laser source emits coherent light that is split into two paths; one path reflects from a reference surface and the other from the test surface, and the recombined beams create an interference pattern captured by a camera.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedThe Verifire XP/D is employed in the final inspection and quality assurance stages of optical fabrication, after grinding, polishing, and figuring operations.
Applications
General reference — not yet source-verifiedTypical applications include testing of lenses, mirrors, prisms, and other precision optical surfaces for flatness, sphericity, and surface roughness.
The instrument is also used in the assembly and alignment of optical systems and in the characterization of optical materials.
