ABSTRACT:
An optical device and method for testing high reflectivity autostigmatic optical elements and systems is disclosed. A thin, partially transmissive optical element, e.g., a pellicle with an optical coating having a transmission factor determined by the nominal reflectivity of the test article, is placed in the measurement leg of a spherical wavefront Fizeau interferometer so that high contrast, two-beam interference fringes can be obtained from a high reflectivity autostigmatic optical element or system.
