Abstract
A wavefront calibration method for a wavefront tester of a lens, the method including: measuring an air wavefront of the wavefront tester without the lens; measuring at least one golden sample wavefront to generate an actual wedge angle and refractive index of the at least one golden sample based on the air wavefront; calculating a measured wedge angle and refractive index based on the actual wedge angle and refractive index of the at least one golden sample; and linear fitting between the actual wedge angle and refractive index and the measured wedge angle and refractive index to produce an actual magnification of the lens.
