Opis

Passive Micro-Optical Alignment Methods introduces the passive alignment methods that are currently available and illustrates them with many examples, references, and critiques. The first book dedicated to passive alignment, it begins with an overview of the current activities, requirements, and general results of passive optical alignments, followed by three sections of in-depth analysis. The first of these discusses mechanical passive alignment and the second, various visual alignment techniques. The final section details various utilities that aid passive alignment, their resulting tradeoffs, and the use of Monte Carlo analysis to evaluate the potential of a given passive method.
