Wenrui Cai, Dae Wook Kim, Ping Zhou, Robert E. Parks, James H. Burge College of Optical Science, University of Arizona, 1630 E. University Blvd., Tucson, AZ, USA 85721 [email protected] Abstract: Two different approaches (systematically and randomly rotating the CaliBall to calibrate a Fizeau interferometer transmission sphere) are demonstrated with similar calibration results. Thus, the random approach is preferred as a quicker and easier measurement procedure. ©2010 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (120.6650) Surface measurements, figure; (220.4840) Optical testing

A Practical Implementation of the Random Ball Test
Although the idea must have been around for years the use of a ball for the calibration of interferometer transmissions spheres was, to our knowledge first reported in 1999. The ball used at the time was made of black (neutral density filter) glass and worked fine for a demonstration of the principle but was not really practical because of its relative softness of the glass and susceptibility t...
متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of Rotary Table Using an Angular Indexing System with Self-Calibration Technique
The angular error of indexing table on machine tool is measured using new developed measuring device. The measuring techniques, which have been reviewed in this paper, are currently available in manufacturing engineering to calibrate the angle measurement. The new developed measuring device using 6 points kinematic concept and employing ball and vee grooves is used to calibrate angle errors of ...
متن کاملPrecise calibration of LIGO test mass actuators using photon radiation pressure
Precise calibration of kilometer-scale interferometric gravitational wave detectors is crucial for source localization and waveform reconstruction. A technique that uses the radiation pressure of a power-modulated auxiliary laser to induce calibrated displacements of one of the ∼10 kg arm cavity mirrors, a so-called photon calibrator, has been demonstrated previously and has recently been imple...
متن کاملElectron cyclotron emission measurements on JET: Michelson interferometer, new absolute calibration, and determination of electron temperature.
At the fusion experiment JET, a Michelson interferometer is used to measure the spectrum of the electron cyclotron emission in the spectral range 70-500 GHz. The interferometer is absolutely calibrated using the hot/cold technique and, in consequence, the spatial profile of the plasma electron temperature is determined from the measurements. The current state of the interferometer hardware, the...
