Multi-parameter measuring method of image intensifier based on Fourier transform phase measurement

A new quality parameter measuring method of image intensifier based on Fourier transform phase measurement is proposed. A standard sinusoidal fringe pattern is projected into the measuring system by spatial light modulator and the corresponding reference pattern and deformed pattern are captured by CCD. The Fourier transform and inverse Fourier transform are applied in order to extract the phase distribution of deformed pattern. The magnification, pillow-shaped distortion, barrel-shaped distortion, snake-shaped distortion and shear distortion of image intensifier are obtained at the same time. Experiment has proved its feasibility with real-time performance and without manual intervention.
