Abstract: An alignment apparatus for aligning components of an optical assembly include a chuck configured to support the optical assembly thereon, and an adjustable flexure assembly disposed around the chuck. The adjustable flexure assembly includes a plurality of flexures. The plurality of flexures are positioned relative to the chuck such that each of the plurality of flexures contact the optical assembly when the optical assembly is positioned on the chuck. Adjustment of a position of one or more flexures of the plurality of flexures adjusts an alignment of an optical axis of an optical component of the optical assembly when the optical assembly is positioned on the chuck, wherein the alignment apparatus is configured to align optical axes of the optical component to an angle of deviation of less than about 1,000 μrad and provide an extinction ratio within the optical assembly of greater than or equal to 1000:1

Abstract: A method for aligning multiple optical components in an optical system including placing a sphere at a first position that is at a center of curvature of a first optical component, and aligning a focus of a first reference signal with the sphere at the first position. Then, moving the sphere along an axis of optical symmetry to a second position that is at a center of curvature of a second optical component, and aligning a focus of a second reference signal with the sphere at the second position. The first optical component is aligned with the first reference signal and fixing the first optical component, and the second optical component is aligned with the second reference signal and fixing the second optical component.

Abstract: An optical mount includes a support substrate defining an aperture configured to receive an optical element. A support assembly is positioned proximate a perimeter of the aperture. The support assembly includes a resilient member configured reflects in response to relative motion between the optical element and the support substrate. A support plate is positioned on the resilient member and is in contact with the optical element.

Abstract: A magnification adjustable projection system is provided that includes an imaging system having an object or image space, a first deformable lens plate located within the object or image space for contributing a first magnification power to the imaging system as a function of an amount of curvature of the first deformable lens plate, and a second deformable lens plate located within the object or image space for contributing a second magnification power to the imaging system as a function of an amount of curvature of the second deformable lens plate. The projection system also has first and second bending apparatuses that adjust the curvature of the first and second deformable lens plate through a range of curvature variation for adjusting the magnification power of the imaging system.

Abstract: The method of aligning a cylindrical lens in a lens assembly includes attaching the cylindrical lens to a lens fixture and interfacing the lens fixture to a support structure in which the cylindrical lens can be placed in a frontwards and backwards orientation. The method also includes capturing respective first and second line images of respective first and second focus lines as formed by the cylindrical lens in the forwards and backwards orientations. The method further includes establishing a relative orientation of the first and second line images and using the established relative orientation to determine an amount of angular misalignment of the cylindrical lens relative to a reference direction provided by the support structure. The method can include rotating the cylindrical lens relative to the lens fixture to reduce the amount of angular misalignment to be within an angular alignment tolerance.
