Low polarization beamsplitter has been reported by article and patent in Applied Optics in 1983. Which structure is a quartz birefringent plate, it can be used to splite beam by using the reflection and refraction of the surface of the birefringent plate. In this article I have introduced a polychromatic adjustable beamsplitting angle low polarization prism, which is composed of four elements. I have studied it by theoretical analysis and experiment measurement. Whose character is: (1) the beamsplitting angle can be adjustable continuously, (2) transmission is high, (3) the intensities of the two beams are about equal, and, (4) the adjusting is convenient and reliable. Such as a 37 degree(s) prism, the beam splitting angle is from 15 degree(s) to 45 degree(s), transmission is above 85%, the maximum polarization degree of the emergent light is below 10%. The range of the beamsplitting angle can be designed in need.

In this article the emergence, development and present of depolarizer has been studied by me. Then I have studied the all quartz depolarizers existing presently. Such as single plate depolarizer, loyt depolarizer, single wedge depolarizer, right angle prism depolarizer, J.C. kremen double wedges depolarizer by theoretical analysis and experiment measurements. I have found when the polarization plane of the incident monochromatic light is unknown or frequently varies, the emergent light can not be depolarized completely by using all the existing depolarizers. According to this situation, I have invented a new type of double wedge depolarizer. I can depolarize the emergent light completely whether the polarization plane of the incident is known or frequently varies by using the new depolarizer. The polarization degree of the emergent light is below 1.0%, transmission ratio is above 90%.

A testing program was conducted to determine the long term temporal stability properties of sheet Invar. The tests were conducted at the University of Arizona's optical Sciences Center over a period of 9 months. Growth measurements were made using an interferometric optical technique at both ambient and elevated temperatures. Eleven specimen types, in groups of three, were included in the test. These data were combined with published historical data to establish an estimate to the long term behavior. It was found that Invar exhibits short term behavior with a rapid initial growth rate, 8 - 12 ppm/yr and time constant on the order of 100 days plus long term exponential growth at lower growth rates, 2 - 5 ppm/yr initial (end of year 1) with a three to eight year time constant. The parameters which most significantly effect Invar growth rate were found to be: time since final heat treatment; carbon content; heat treatment; and, ambient temperature.

This paper describes the design and performance of an automated, closed-loop, laser beam alignment system. Its function is to sense a beam alignment error in a laser beam transport system and automatically steer mirrors preceding the sensor location as required to maintain beam alignment. The laser beam is sampled by an optomechanical package which uses video cameras to sense pointing and centering errors. The camera outputs are fed to an image processing module, which includes video digitizers and uses image storage and software to sense the centroid of the image. Signals are sent through a VMEbus to an "optical device controller" (ODC), which drives stepper-motor actuators on mirror mounts preceding the beamsampling location to return the beam alignment to the prescribed condition. Photodiodes are also used to extend the control bandwidth beyond that which is achievable with video cameras. This system has been operated at LLNL in the Atomic Vapor Laser Isotope Separation (AVLIS) program to maintain the alignment of copper and dye laser beams, the latter to within tr in pointing and less than 1 mm in centering. The optomechanical design of the instrumented package, which includes lens, mirror, and video mounts in a rigid housing, the automated control system architecture, and the performance of this equipment is described.

A new method for optical microscopy with super-resolution exceeding the Rayleigh limit was developed to observe the shape of particles contaminating the LSI patterned wafer in the far- field. The principle of the new method is as follows. The optical spot being smaller than the measured particles has to be scanned on the particle to measure the shape of particles on the wafer. The phase-shifting mask making small optical spot consists of the checkered mask which has been coated with a transparent layer patterned to ensure that the optical phases of the nearest apertures are opposite. The destructive interference between the two opposite phases of light waves from adjacent apertures cancels some diffraction effects and increases the spatial resolution, so that the size and resolution of the coherent laser spots can exceed the size limit of the Airy disk and resolution of Rayleigh limit. The new method for optical microscope with super resolution was examined theoretically and experimentally. The coherent beam generated from 15 mW He-Ne laser projected to the phase-shifting checkered mask forms small laser spots of which size are under 0.1 micrometers in diameter. It is clarified that in the far-field, the scattered light from two spots with opposite phases on the wafer can be observed in exceeding with Rayleigh limit.

Rank Pneumo has worked with the Center for Optics Manufacturing and the Center's Manufacturing Advisory Board to design a multi-axis prism grinding machine. The Opticam PM is a three axis, high precision CNC reciprocating grinder. It is designed for the automated manufacturing of glass prisms. Unique features of the design incorporate electrolytic in- process dressing of the finishing wheel, nested grinding wheels and machine resident metrology to provide RQM (Real-time Quality Management).

A scheme of an optical switch using a matrix of reprogrammable holograms is discussed. The light from each input channel is deflected to an output channel with a separate microhologram. The microholograms are recorded and overrecorded with two acousto-optical deflectors on a bacteriorhodospin photo medium. The experiments have been carried out on a prototype with 20 × 20 channels. As shown, the capacity of such a switch can be increased up to 104 × 104.

The first-order Double-Gauss 4 element objective arrangement derived from a triplet type by splitting the central negative element is discussed. The Petzval sum of the lens system was chosen and calculated. With desired axial color, glasses will be selected and axial color calculated. By using the aspherical coefficients, we discuss the aberrations compensation. Following the design procedures to design a camera objective, the lens data after optimization and the MTF curve are presented.
