Passively aligned crossed-cylinder objective assembly

Abstract:

A cross-cylinder objective assembly includes a fast axis objective (FAO) situated along an optical axis for focusing an incident laser beam along a fast axis, a slow axis objective (SAO) situated along the optical axis for focusing the incident laser beam along a slow axis, and a lens cell having fast and slow axis objective receiving portions for registering the FAO and SAO at a predetermined spacing along the optical axis.
