Interferometric Measurement of Microlenses Including Cylindrical Lenses

  • Chapter
Microoptics

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Optical Sciences ((SSOS,volume 97))

Abstract

Passive optical elements are essential parts of microoptical subsystems. The optical function of the elements is brought about either (1) through special surface forms or (2) with corrugated surfaces through the groove profile. Alternatively, also the distribution of the refractive index in volume media in form of graded index distributions (GRIN lenses) or as periodic index variation (holographic volume elements) can be exploited to achieve useful optical light manipulations as, for example, focusing or deflection of light beams.
