Abstract

We have developed an optical system which permits the absolute positioning of an element with respect to a reference laser beam. The resolution is of the order of 10 micrometer in translation and 50 (mu) rad in rotation. It is highly transparent (greater than 90%) permitting several elements to be aligned. A calibration procedure has also been studied in order to be independent of internal deformations.
