Abstract

A new method of testing mirrors with stretched and/or decentered aspheric surfaces is described. By utilizing Phase Measuring Interferometric techniques, the null lens can be replaced with a computer-generated reference file containing the equivalent OPD information. An example of the procedure used is given for a typical complex aspheric.
