Abstract

Prisms are common in many optical instruments, however, widespread application of coherent sources has tightened the already stringent requirements set on these in principle simple optical components. One of the main problems in manufacturing prisms is the fast measurement of the angles. The objective of this paper is to suggest an instrument for the simple nd rapid testing of angles in prisms, thus saving valuable time for the technician.
