Further information
PhaseCam Twyman-Green infrared interferometers accurately measure concave, convex and afocal infrared components, as well as infrared telescopes and lens systems. PhaseCam systems are ideally suited for measuring infrared optics over long paths, for remote mounting in measurement towers or pressure vessels, and for other challenging test setups.
PhaseCam NIR and SWIR Infrared Interferometers
Small and lightweight, PhaseCam NIR and SWIR systems operate at wavelengths of 1.064 μm or 1.55 μm and incorporate patented Dynamic Interferometry® technology to acquire data thousands of times faster than a temporal phase shifting interferometer. Because acquisition time is so short, the systems can be used without vibration isolation in the most challenging environments.
These systems are ideal for long optical path-length measurement of large, focal optical systems such as concave telescope mirrors and lens systems, and for testing small aperture afocal components such as flat mirrors and collimators.
PhaseCam MWIR Infrared Interferometers
The PhaseCam Twyman-Green MWIR interferometer accurately measures concave, convex and afocal components, as well as optical systems, at mid-IR wavelengths. Its optical system enables measurement of both uncoated optics and high reflectors.
With its secondary output aperture on the side, we can provide an Off-Axis Parabolic Beam Expander, like the 150mm example shown.
The dual MWIR measurement path is uniquely
suited to maintaining two test set-ups. Use both in parallel, and significantly reduce set-up and alignment time for a specific test.
PhaseCam MWIR with beam expander Operating at 3.39 µm (other wavelengths available)
This 2:14 minute introduction of the PhaseCam MWIR with its remarkable features helps you see how well thought-out this instrument is. It adds so much value over the lifetime of its use.
