本文描述了猫眼后向反射器的特性,它以一种新颖的方式被结合到双程零差偏振干涉仪中。猫眼提供的镜面倾斜免疫量是在近轴近似下使用4×4 ABCD矩阵计算的。结果表明,靶镜存在倾斜抗扰度最大的位置。利用Zemax光学设计软件对一只受像差影响的真实猫眼进行了优化和检测。镜面倾斜抗扰度的最大值是根据散焦和球差进行数值计算和写成的。最后,为了比较的目的,对于集成猫眼的干涉仪和立方角干涉仪,计算了目标镜倾斜时的李萨如图案的幅度。
This paper describes the behavior of a cat's eye retroreflector, which is incorporated in a novel way in a double-pass homodyne polarization interferometer. The amount of mirror tilt immunity a cat's eye provides is calculated within the paraxial approximation using 4×4 ABCD matrices. It is found that there is a position of the target mirror in which the tilt immunity is at a maximum. A real cat's eye, which is affected by aberrations, is optimized and examined using Zemax software for optical design. The maximum amount of mirror tilt immunity is numerically calculated and written in terms of defocus and spherical aberration. Finally, for the purposes of comparison, the amplitude of the Lissajous pattern as the target mirror tilts is calculated for both an interferometer with an integrated cat's eye and an interferometer with a cube corner.
