摘要
Although EUV-optics can be very accurately tested interferometrically employing a synchrotron (1), testing with a laser-induced or pinch plasma is attractive because of the lower cost of such sources. Within Philips Research a project has started to build an interferometer employing a laser plasma source and a Ronchi-test (2) which is modified in such a way that two-beam interferograms are obtained. We analyze the accuracy, the: vibration and drift sensitivity and the dynamic range of the interferometer for three different combinations of entrance and exit grating by means of computer-generated interferograms. The results are compared with an optical experiment, in which the relevant parameters of the interferometer have been scaled up so that visible light can be used.
