Patent abstract
A method for measuring a wavefront of an optical system. A first step of the method includes directing electromagnetic radiation uniformly at an object plane having a first grating positioned therein. Lines of the first grating comprise a plurality of dots. A second step of the method includes projecting an image of the first grating onto a focal plane having a second grating positioned therein. A third step of the method includes measuring the wavefront of the optical system based on a fringe pattern produced by the second grating.
