Definitions

  • FIG. 3 is a side view of an optical element in the mount of FIG. 2 looking generally in the direction of arrows 3 — 3 in FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 4 is a view of a housing element in the mount of FIG. 2 looking generally in the direction of arrows 4 — 4 in FIG. 2;
  • each element 60, 62 when mounted to one another, the mounting pads 66, 70 of each element 60, 62 are only in contact with one another at the mounting pads 66, 70.
  • the connecting surfaces 68, 72 are spaced from one another.
  • the optical element connecting surface 68 is radially inward of the housing connecting surface 72.
  • the optical element 60 and the housing 62 may be aligned such that the open-end portions of the connecting surfaces 68,72 are aligned or such that the open-end portions are offset from one another.
  • FIGs. 7A-7C Another embodiment of an optical element 80 and the housing element 82 are shown in FIGs. 7A-7C.
  • the second optical element 104 includes a second optical element mount 1 14 that includes three second optical element mounting pads 1 16 that are linked together by a second optical element connecting surface 1 18.
  • the housing 106 is shown in more detail in FIG. 9.
  • the housing 106 includes a first housing mount 120 and a second housing mount 122.
  • the first housing mount 120 includes a set of three first housing mount mounting pads 124 connected by a connecting surface 126.
  • the second housing mount 122 includes a set of three second housing mount mounting pads 128 connected by a connecting surface 130.
  • the first housing mount 120 and the second housing mount 122 each have a continuous and substantially planar surface that is optically measurable, as described above.
