EMPIR project 'Reference algorithms and metrology on aspherical and freeform lenses' (15SIB01, FreeFORM) is working to develop new measurement capabilities to routinely measure aspherical and freeform optical surfaces at a precision of less than 30 nanometres. These surfaces are used in a variety of optical systems, from medical imaging to astronomy.


The project consortium are organising two events where outcomes from the project will be presented:


In addition, outcomes of the project are presented in a paper entitled Hierarchical-information-based characterization of multiscale structured surfaces, published in online journal Science Direct.

This EMPIR project is co-funded by the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme and the EMPIR Participating States.
