Abstract
Fabrication and testing of optical elements with precision up to lambda/100 or freeform optics for high-end products are always a challenge. By incorporating special process chains and self-developed metrology equipments, optics of various materials can be made at Zeiss with excellent shapes and finishes. This is demonstrated by CaF2 and fused silica optics.
