Scanning Optical Head with Nontilted Reference Beam: Assuring Nanoradian Accuracy for a New Generation Surface Profiler in the Large-Slope Testing Range

Figure 7

Method of measuring systematic slope error caused by the BLM for the LTP MF: an external pencil beam is scanned laterally over the LTP MF aperture by a pentaprism. If there is no systematic slope error, the slope curve should be a straight line.
