New Product Released at 2017 Photonics West
What is this? It's my new product released this week. The "W2-AM-PR" alignment module that measures wavefront using phase retrieval. I'm at the 2017 Photonics West Show in Booth # 3004 (all the way at the end of the line of tables). Come see me to learn...

Update to paper presented August 2016 at SPIE’s Optics + Photonics Conference
I presented a paper on the W2-AM at SPIE’s Optics + Photonics conference in August 2016. The paper was prepared using a mock-up instrument. The spots were good looking in the paper, but there was some debris on the reticle and in the image. Since then we’ve shipped...
Update to 3D Printed Parts
I tried out the 3D printed parts for the W1-IM (interference microscope stand) a couple days ago. The results are not a total surprise – it sort of works. Actually it almost works well. If the room is quiet, the fringes stay still. In reality it doesn’t work as...
Update to 3-D Printed Parts Designed
The stand for the W1-IM is a little further along. I will be using it right after Thanksgiving in support of an experiment. I hope to post some results before Christmas.
3-D Printed Parts Designed
Hi, Rather than start this blog by writing about grand plans or why I’m doing it, I thought I’d just start with something I’ve been working on this past week. The two pictures are of Opt-E’s W1 microscope with a nPoint piezo focusing stage. Basically, it's my...
