    Skylight: a hollow prismatic CPC
    (Proceedings of the SPIE, 2009) García Fernández, Berta; García Botella, Angel; Álvarez Fernández-Balbuena, Antonio; Vázquez Molini, Daniel; Bernabéu Martínez, Eusebio; Winston, Roland; Gordon, Jeffrey M.
    Many applications involve the use of a compound parabolic concentrator (CPC) like, natural lighting, thermal applications, optics for illuminators, optical fibre coupling and solar energy. The use of a CPC in reverse mode for natural lighting gives the chance to use it as a lighting skylight in ceilings because light output is controlled inside the design angle, on the contrary having a low flux transfer ratio because of the reduced area of the entrance pupil regarding exit pupil. The authors propose an innovative 3D hollow prismatic CPC (HPCPC) made of a dielectric material, which has a high efficiency comparing it with aluminium CPC. The basic idea is to use a hollow prismatic light guide with CPC shape. This paper reports 2D, 3D design and numerical analysis by raytracing software, also experimental results are shown. The system works almost like a true CPC when light enters through standard entrance pupil and also collect light that enters outside entrance pupil. Performance and efficiency of the prismatic CPC is in average 300% higher than standard aluminium CPC for collimated light in a range from 0º to 85º. A prototype has been developed and tested.

    Laser beam deflectometry based on a subpixel resolution algorithm
    (Optical Engineering, 2001) Canabal Boutureira, Héctor Alfonso; Alonso Fernández, José; Bernabéu Martínez, Eusebio
    A deflectometric method for the characterization of optical systems is presented. It is based on the use of a CCD camera and a subpixel resolution algorithm for the measurement of the deflection of a laser beam that propagates through the system. To obtain accurate results, three different algorithms for measuring the position of the deflected beam are tested and compared. Based on this comparison, an algorithm based on the calculation of the phase of the fast Fourier transform (FFT) is selected, and an accuracy of 0.024 pixels is obtained on the determination of the beam position in our setup. Using an XY scanning stage, the proposed method is completely automated and applied for the characterization of ophthalmic lenses. In this application, the gradients of the wavefront refracted by the lens are measured directly, and from them, the thickness and the local power of the lens are computed.

    Optical autofocus for high resolution laser photoplotting
    (Photonic Materials, Devices, and Applications, 2005) Alonso Fernández, José; Crespo Vázquez, Daniel; Jiménez Castillo, Isidoro; Bernabéu Martínez, Eusebio; Badenes, Goncal; Abbott, Derek; Serpenguzel, Ali
    An all optical autofocus has been designed and tested for tight line width control in a high NA laser photoplotter system. The laser system is based in a GaN semiconductor laser with power 30 mW and wavelength 405 nm. The advantage of using this laser, despite the relatively long wavenlength, is compactness and easy for high frequency modulation. The autofocus system is based in a secondary 635 nm GaAlAs laser without need for wavelength, neither power stabilization. The two beams are delivered coaxially through the focusing lens by means of a dichroic beamsplitter. Focusing lens need no correction for chromatic aberration, as this is compensed by appropriate autofocus beam divergence. After reflection in the sample, the autofocus beam is separated from the returning writing beam and then guided to a collimation sensor, in which defocus of about 1/20 of the Rayleigh range of the writing beam can be detected and compensated by an analogue PID electronic control. Stable linewidth within 5% is achieved with different numerical aperture focusing lenses.

    Deflectometric measurement of mechanical spectacle lens deformation
    (Ophtalmic and Physiological Optics, 2000) Peral Cerda, María Asunción; Alonso Fernández, José; Canos Sanz, Joán; Bernabéu Martínez, Eusebio
    The warpage of a set of six hard resin spherical lenses was measured when they were compressed by means of the tangential force exerted by a metal frame. The technique employed to measure the lenses improves over previous work both because greater precision is achieved, and because radii of curvature are measured in two perpendicular meridians. In this work, a representative sample of lenses has been used in order to test the way in which deformation depends on lens power and base. It is found that the induced warpage is enough to move the tested lenses between different base families, spoiling the initial design of the manufacturer.

    In-line detection and evaluation of surface defects on thin metallic wires
    (Optical Measurement Systems for Industrial Inspection II: Applications in Production Engineering, 2001) Martínez Antón, Juan Carlos; Siegmann, Philip; Sánchez Brea, Luis Miguel; Gómez Pedrero, José Antonio; Canabal Boutureira, Héctor Alfonso; Bernabéu Martínez, Eusebio; Hoefling, Roland; Jueptner, Werner P. O.; Kujawinska, Malgorzata
    We have developed a prototype for in-line detection of surface defects in metallic wires, specially for scratches. A simple geometrical relationship between surface topography and conical reflection, permits to correlate the defects with intensity patterns in a simple way. The presented apparatus consists basically in a grating-divided laser beam incident on angular equidistant points. A CCD and an associated optics capture the information of the whole wire perimeter at once. Analytic rudiments are provided in agreement with the experimental results.

    Enhancement of surface inspection by Moiré interferometry using flexible reference gratings
    (Optics Express, 2001) Quiroga Mellado, Juan Antonio; Martínez Antón, Juan Carlos; Canabal Boutureira, Héctor Alfonso; Bernabéu Martínez, Eusebio; Álvaro Labajo, M.; Cortés Testillano, V.
    We have extended the use of shadow Moiré technique to be implemented in simple curved surfaces by using a flexible grating. Dynamic visual inspection of surface micro-damages is significantly favored by the use of well adapted pliable gratings compared to the use of flat reference gratings. The experimental set-up consists of a plastic foil with a printed Ronchi grating stretched between three points which adapts to any cylindrical or conical convex surface independently of the relative orientation grating/surface. Static quantification of defects profiles is also possible with an attached CCD camera. Visual detection of defects in the range of ~30 μm in depth is obtainable.

    Detection of microbumps in aeronautic surfaces by means of an elastical Moire system
    (Optical Measurement Systems for Industrial Inspection II: Application in Industrial Design, 2001) Quiroga Mellado, Juan Antonio; Martínez Antón, Juan Carlos; Canabal Boutureira, Héctor Alfonso; Bernabéu Martínez, Eusebio; Álvaro Labajo, M.; Cortés Testillano, V.
    We provide a simple solution for the particular problem of the in-service inspection of aeronautic surfaces in order to detect bumps that otherwise it is made visually and usually less reliably. Bumps and other surface defects can be a symptom of a more serious internal damage. We have extended the use of the well know shadow Moire technique to be implemented in convex curved surfaces. The use of flexible Ronchi grating allows its adaptation to a convex general surface. The effect is the contrast enhancement of only the small defects sweeping-off other misleading height profile fringes. The result obtained are quite satisfactory compared to the use of flat reference gratings. The experimental set- up consists of a plastic foil with a printed Ronchi grating stretched between three points which adapts to nay cylindrical or conical convex surface independently of the relative grating-surface orientation. Static quantification of defects profiles is also possible by means of with an attached CCD camera. Visual detectability of local surface structures lye in the range of approximately 30 micrometers in depth.
