Abstract
During recent years, Lockheed has been researching and developing many of the key optical technologies required by modern optical systems for military and civil space programs. This paper summarizes recent progress made in interferometry as a tool for wavefront sensing in beam control and diagnostics and other precision optical metrology. The areas include: (1) optical design, modeling, and analysis of interferometers; (2) computer-assisted opto-mechanical design and layout; (3) real-time interferometry by digital heterodyne and phase-shifting techniques for various applications; and (4) data processing algorithms.
