A linear spectrometer for spectrally measuring an optical signal. The spectrometer has an input receiving the signal which is then diffracted onto a diffraction grating. The signal is therefore divided into its spectral components, each component being diffracted at an angle &thgr;. A correcting element, such as a lens, a group of lenses, a mirror, etc. is provided for focusing the spectral components on an image plane where they are detected. The correcting element is designed so that the resulting distribution of the spectral components on the image plane is linear with respect to the component's wavelength.

The present invention concerns a linear wavelength DWDM that is compact and is adapted for use with fibre ribbons and which compensates for the non-linear relationship between equally spectrally spaced wavelengths and physically spaced wavelengths once they have been diffracted. The device includes a first and second port in an optically transmissive medium. The ports are in optical communication with each other through a first and second mirror and a diffraction grating. Preferably, the first mirror is located opposite the first port, and is off-axis with respect to the optical axis. The diffraction grating is located on the same side as the input port, and is in optical communication with the first mirror. The second mirror is located on the same side as the first mirror and is in optical communication with the diffraction grating. The output port is slightly off-axis with respect to the optical axis of the second mirror and is in optical communication therewith. The device compensates for the non-linear relationship between equally spectrally spaced wavelengths and physically spaced wavelengths once they have been diffracted.

The present invention is directed to an optical system for measurement of a three dimensional device. The optical system is designed and configured to meet telecentric and f-.theta. requirements. The system employs primary and secondary mirrors operating in conjunction with a tertiary deflector mounted on a pivot. Light from a light source produces a beam which is deflected off the deflector and the secondary and primary reflectors respectively. The beam is then transmitted to the surface of the object to be measured. Deflection of the tertiary deflector on the pivot results in scanning of the light beam across the surface of the object to be measured.

A digital X-ray system for capturing high quality images by maximizing the collection of emitted light from an intensifying screen in response to X-ray impact. The digital X-ray system includes a housing having a fluorescent intensifying screen for receiving emitted X-rays, two reflectors for maximizing light collection and optimizing the light path from the intensifying screen, and a lens assembly. A CCD chip receives the light from the lens assembly, to provide a digital image for immediate on-board processing or post-processing by a computer. The housing is compact, and can be used as a direct replacement for traditional film cartridges without major modifications to the system. The lens assembly includes freeform matched lenses to remove optical distortions, and the housing includes a light sensor for providing exposure measurement and feedback. The system is designed to be quasi-monochromatic to maintain consistent image quality over the entire area of the intensifying screen.

An optical system for focusing an incident light so as to obtain a linear output (as a function of the wavelength, or of the order of diffraction, or of the grating spacial frequency or of the inverse of the index of refraction) comprises a diffraction grating and a lens, or a group of lenses, having a f-Sin(&thgr;) characteristic, where f is the effective focal length of the lens, or group of lenses, and &thgr; is an output angle of the light exiting from the diffraction grating. Therefore, a light incident on the diffraction grating reaches the lens, or the group of lenses, and results in a linear output. Using the present invention in a spectrometer reduces the time consuming calibration process required and renders it easier because of the linear output between wavelength and pixels positions. The lens, or group of lenses, has a diffractive, refractive or reflective property, or any combination thereof. The incident light can be a collimated, converging or diverging beam. The diffraction grating can be a plane, concave or convex grating.

A system for characterizing an aspheric surface with respect to an expected shape thereof, comprising a light source to emit light of desirable properties. A ferrofluid deformable mirror apparatus has a reflective surface being controllably deformable. The reflective surface is shaped as a function of the expected shape so as to reflect light in a known path toward a detector. Optical elements project light from the light source onto the aspheric surface such that light is reflected along an expected path if the aspheric surface has the expected shape. Light is reflected from the aspheric surface along an actual path. The optical elements project light on the reflective surface of the ferrofluid deformable apparatus such that light is reflected along the known path. A detector receives light reflected along at least one of the actual path and the known path to obtain an interference pattern as a function of the expected path. Means are provided for interpreting the interference pattern so as to characterize the aspheric surface with respect to the expected shape.

An apparatus for generating linear patterns of light comprises a light source emitting a first light beam. An anamorphic system is positioned downstream of the light source and is adapted to receive the first light beam of the light source for concentrating the first light beam such that the first light beam would project a first linear pattern on a far field. A diffractive optical element is positioned downstream of the anamorphic system for receiving and diffusing the first light beam of the anamorphic system a plurality of second light beams. The plurality of second light beams overlap one another at least partially so as to project a second linear pattern on the far field of altered intensity with respect to the first linear pattern.
