20、 member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, gover
21、nmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC D
22、irectives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member
23、bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 14880-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photoni
24、cs, Subcommittee SC 9, Electro-optical systems. ISO 14880 consists of the following parts, under the general title Optics and photonics Microlens arrays: Part 1: Vocabulary Part 2: Test methods for wavefront aberrations Part 3:Test methods for optical properties other than wavefront aberrations Part
25、 4: Test methods for geometrical properties EN ISO 14880-2:2006vIntroduction This part of ISO 14880 specifies methods of testing wavefront aberrations for microlens arrays. Examples of microlens array applications include three-dimensional displays, coupling optics associated with arrayed optical ra
26、diation sources and photo-detectors, enhanced optics for liquid crystal displays, and optical parallel processor elements. The market in microlens arrays is generating an urgent need for agreement on basic terminology and test methods for a definition of the microlens array itself. Standard terminol
27、ogy and a clear definition are needed not only to promote applications but also to encourage scientists and engineers to exchange ideas and new concepts based on common understanding. Microlenses are used as single lenses and in arrays of two or more lenses. The characteristics of the lenses are fun
28、damentally evaluated with a single lens. Therefore, it is important that the basic characteristic of a single lens can be evaluated first. However, if a large number of lenses is formed on a single substrate, the measurement of the whole array will incur a lot of time and cost. Furthermore, methods
29、for measuring lens shapes are essential as a production tool. Appraisal methods of the characteristic parameters are defined by ISO 14880-1, Vocabulary. It has been completed by a set of three other International Standards, i.e. Part 2, Test methods for wavefront aberrations, Part 3, Test methods fo
30、r optical properties other than wavefront aberrations and Part 4, Test methods for geometrical properties. This part of ISO 14880 specifies methods for measuring wavefront quality. Wavefront quality is the basic performance characteristic of a microlens. Characteristics other than wavefront aberrati
31、ons are specified in ISO 14880-3 and ISO 14880-4. EN ISO 14880-2:2006blank1Optics and photonics Microlens arrays Part 2: Test methods for wavefront aberrations 1 Scope This part of ISO 14880 specifies methods for testing wavefront aberrations for microlenses within microlens arrays. It is applicable
32、 to microlens arrays with very small lenses formed inside or on one or more surfaces of a common substrate. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references,

35、eral The test system consists of a source of optical radiation, a collimator lens, a method of limiting the measurement aperture, a sample holding apparatus, imaging optics, an image sensor and an interference pattern analyser system. 5.2 Standard optical radiation source A source of optical radiati
36、on shall be used, which is suitable for the testing of wavefront aberrations of microlenses. The aberrations of the wavefront at the operational wavelength impinging on the test equipment shall have a rms deviation of u /10 over the effective aperture of the microlens to be tested. Properties of the
37、 source to be specified include centre wavelength, half-width of the spectrum, the type of optical radiation source, states of polarization (randomly polarized optical radiation, linearly polarized optical radiation, circularly polarized optical radiation, etc.), radiance angle (in mrad), spot size
38、or beam waist parameters. Otherwise, the specification of the radiation source shall be described in the documentation of the experimental results. NOTE 1 Usually, He-Ne gas lasers are used. Other gas lasers, solid-state lasers, semiconductor lasers (LD), and light emitting diodes (LED) are also use
39、d. NOTE 2 LDs and LEDs are used together with a suitable optical wavefront aberration compensation system. 5.3 Standard lens Where a standard lens is used as a reference or for generating an ideal spherical wave, the wavefront aberrations of the standard lens shall be smaller by at least one order o
40、f magnitude compared to that of the lens to be tested or shall be u /10 rms deviation. The objective lens of an optical microscope used as the standard lens shall be specified with the effective numerical aperture. The following shall be given: effective aperture; effective focal length at the opera
41、tional wavelength. The test geometry for the measurement of the wavefront aberrations is restricted to the case /f for the conjugates of the lens. 5.4 Collimator The collimator optics shall have a numerical aperture greater than the maximum numerical aperture of the test sample sufficient to avoid e
42、ffects due to diffraction. The wavefront aberrations shall be less than /20 rms deviation at the operational wavelength. Otherwise the specification used should be described in the test report. 5.5 Beam reduction optical system A telescopic system consisting of two positive lenses in an afocal arran
43、gement is used for the adaptation of the beam cross-section to the array detector. The ratio of the focal lengths gives the reduction factor. NOTE The diameter of the evaluated lens area can be set to the effective aperture by software to avoid additional diffraction at a physical aperture. EN ISO 1
44、4880-2:200635.6 Aperture stop A physical stop is placed in the optical radiation beam of the test equipment to limit the diameter of the optical radiation beam incident on the lens to be tested. Alternatively the stop may be realized by a truncation software during evaluation. 6 Test principle The w
45、avefront aberrations of the test microlens shall be determined with an interferometer or another wavefront test device as described in the Annexes. When small-diameter Gaussian beams are used, care should be taken because geometrical optics does not apply to the propagation of such beams. The detect
46、or surface shall be conjugate with the entrance or exit pupil of the test microlens. An aperture is used to analyse the data for the wave aberrations. The test method shall be chosen to suit the application. Single-pass applications require testing using single-pass interferometers. NOTE Modern inte
47、rferometers use laser sources for considering the setting up of the interferometric test but it causes severe problems if a double-pass arrangement is chosen in reflected optical radiation, when Fizeau or Twyman-Green interferometers are used. All dielectric boundaries between lenses contribute to s
48、purious fringe patterns. Arrangements using transmitted optical radiation are less affected by spurious fringes than reflection type interferometers. It is preferable to use interferometers of the Mach-Zehnder or lateral shearing type or Shack-Hartmann arrangements in transmitted optical radiation.
49、For the measurement of wave aberrations a single-pass geometry in transmitted optical radiation will therefore be the first choice for this aim. 7 Measurement arrangement 7.1 Measurement arrangement for single microlenses Interferometers or wavefront detectors shall be used to measure the transmitted wavefront of the microlens under test. Single-path interferometers such as Mach-Zehnder, lateral shearing or double-pass interferometers such as Fizeau, Twyman-Green, and Shack-Hartmann wavefront detectors can be used for test
