What it is

The Zygo Verifire XPZ-S is an interferometer.^[1]^[2]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Interferometers of this class typically use a Fizeau or Twyman-Green configuration, depending on the measurement task. The instrument's software processes fringe patterns to generate quantitative data on surface form, roughness, and other parameters.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

Other applications include testing of optical coatings, measurement of refractive index homogeneity in transparent materials, and alignment of optical systems. The instrument supports both plano and spherical surface testing.
