  • Interferometric metrology with a null CGH(computer-generated hologram) is presented for measuring highly aspheric surfaces used in a large screen projection television system with high accuracy. The cubic spline surface model which works in a single-pass configuration with a refractive index of object space 0 is used for designing a null CGH. A hybrid null corrector with plano-concave lens in front of a CGH is presented to make the CGH easier to fabricate. Experimental results are presented to demonstrate the validity of the proposed technique.

  • We constrain cosmological parameters by combining three different power spectra measured from galaxy clustering, galaxy-galaxy lensing, and cosmic shear using the Deep Lens Survey (DLS). Two lens bins (centered at z~0.27 and 0.54) and two source bins (centered at z~0.64, and 1.1) containing more than one million galaxies are selected to measure the power spectra. We re-calibrate the initial photo-z estimation of the lens bins by matching with SHELS and PRIMUS and confirm its fidelity by measuring a cross-correlation between the bins. We also check the reliability of the lensing signals through the null tests, lens-source flipping and cross shear measurement. Residual systematic errors from photometric redshift and shear calibration uncertainties are marginalized over in the nested sampling during our parameter constraint process. For the flat LCDM model, we determine S_8=sigma_8(Omega_m/0.3)^0.5=0.832+-0.028, which is in great agreement with the Planck data. We also verify that the two independent constraints from the cosmic shear and the galaxy clustering+galaxy-galaxy lensing measurements are consistent with each other. To address baryonic feedback effects on small scales, we marginalize over a baryonic feedback parameter, which we are able to constrain with the DLS data alone and more tightly when combined with Planck data. The constrained value hints at the possibility that the AGN feedback in the current OWLS simulations might not be strong enough.

  • A spherical surface referenced Shack-Hartmann method is studied for inspecting machining accuracy of large concave mirror This method is so strong to the vibration environment for using as an on-machine inspection system during polishing process of large optics comparing with the interferometry. The measuring uncertainty of the system is shown as less than p-v 150 m. On-machine measured surface profile data with this method is used for feed back control of the polishing time or depth to improve the surface profile accuracy of large concave mirror. Also, the spherical surface referenced Shack-Hartmann method is useful for measuring aspheric such as parabolic or hyperbolic surface profile, comparing that the interferomehy needs a special null lens, which is to be a reference and difficult to fabricate.

  • On the formulation frameworks of linearly perturbed spacetime and weak gravitational lensing(WGL) we studied the statistical properties of a bundle of light rays propagating through stochastic gravitational wave background(SGWB). For this we considered the SGWB as tensor perturbations of linearly perturbed Friedmann spacetime. Using the solution of null geodesic deviation equation(NGDE) we related the convergence, shear and rotation deformation spectra of WGL with the strain spectra of SGWB. Adopting the astrophysical and cosmological SGWB strain spectra which were already known we investigated the approximated spectral forms of convergence, shear and rotation of WGL.

  • Digital holographic microscopy allows optical path difference measurement. Optical path difference depends on both the refractive index and the morphology of the sample. When interference fringes are very closely spaced, the phase data contain high frequencies where $2{\pi}$ ambiguities cannot be resolved. The immersion testing method, which is a transmission test while the sample is immersed in liquid, is very effective in reducing high frequency fringes in transmission measurements so that large dynamic range testing is possible for a non-null configuration. We developed a digital holographic microscope using liquid that can measure the high numerical aperture aspheric morphology of a sample. This system provides highly precise three-dimensional information on the sample. By improving the experimental method, choosing liquids which have similar refractive index to the sample, we can measure more accurate three-dimensional information on the samples.

  • The collimator is necessary for the assembly and evaluation of high resolution satellite telescope. Traditionally, the off-axis paraboloid has been used as a collimator. However, it has some disadvantages in that it can suffer from air turbulence when the focal length of a collimator is long, which may result in some error in the measurement. In contrast, since the Cassegrain type collimator folds the beam, it occupies smaller space compared to the off-axis paraboloid for the same focal length. This can reduce the air turbulence, which can improve the measurement accuracy. In this paper, we explain the process of design and manufacturing of a diameter 450 mm Cassegrain type collimator, to evaluate the diameter 300 mm satellite telescope. After assembly of primary and secondary mirrors, the final wavefront error of the collimator was 0.07λ(λ=633 nm), which is the diffraction limit.
