摘要: A support system for a vibrating component of an optical assembly that is adjacent to a frame, wherein the component is driven to vibrate along an X-direction of a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system. The support system includes a support member connected to the frame. The support system has contact elements that are adjustable for movement into and out of contact with the vibrating component to constrain motion of the vibrating component in the Y-direction and in the Z-direction, without constraining motion of the vibrating component in the X-direction.

摘要: A system for controlling a light beam in an optical setup includes a light source that directs a collimated light beam along a path, through a sample, and toward the active area of a stationary detector. A lens is selectively movable into the path of the light beam for spreading the beam in instances where the path of the beam is altered by the sample between the source and the stationary detector. The detector, therefore, is held stationary. Adjustment mechanisms are provided for increasing the intensity characteristic of the light that reaches the detector to account for a decrease in intensity that occurs when the lens is in the path of the light beam to spread the beam.

摘要: Provided are systems and methods for precisely measuring birefringence properties of optical elements, especially those elements that are used in deep ultraviolet (DUV) wavelengths. The system includes two photoelastic modulators (PEM) (126, 128) located on opposite sides of the sample (136). Each PEM is operable for modulating the polarity of a light beam that passes though the sample. The system also includes a polarizer (124) associated with one PEM, an analyzer (130) associated with the other PEM, and a detector (132) for measuring the intensity of the light after it passes through the PEMs, polarizer, and analyzer. Described are techniques for determining birefringence properties across a wide range. For example, a dual-wavelength source light embodiment is provided for measuring relatively high levels of birefringence. Also provided is a technique for selecting the most accurate and efficient one of a number of approaches to determining birefringence properties depending upon the estimated value of the birefringence to be detected for a given sample optical element.

摘要: This disclosure is generally directed to systems for imaging polarization properties of optical-material samples. As one example, there is provided a system for precise, simultaneous imaging of both the in-plane and out-of-plane birefringence properties of sample material over a wide range of incidence angles. An example spatially resolved imaging approach described herein is amenable to determination of a wide range of polarimetric properties, in addition to the in-plane and out-of-plane birefringence measure discussed as a preferred embodiment.

摘要: A birefringence measurement system includes a lens mounted for selective movement into and out of use in the optical setup so that a wide range of sample types can be handled by the system without reconfiguring the primary components of the optical setup of the system (moving the detector, changing the light source power, etc.) in a manner that would sacrifice the cost effectiveness, efficiency, mechanical reliability and repeatability of measurements for such systems.
