This video, from the Laser and Fiber Optics Regional Center, is the sixth of eight lectures in the Introduction to Photonics Video Series for Technologists. This video discusses optical handling positioning and care. After viewing this lecture, viewers will be able to:

  • describe the construction and use of different mountings or lenses, mirrors, and other optical components,
  • explain how single and multi-dimensional translational and rotational stages to work,
  • describe how to set up optical systems involving components, optical benches, and vibration-free tables,
  • inspect surfaces of optical elements for thermal and mechanical defects,
  • inspect optical elements for thermal and mechanical defects,
  • handle, clean, and store optical elements, and
  • contact specific vendors and determine the cost of different optical materials and components.

This video runs 28:45 minutes in length. The other videos in this series are available to view separately.
