title: Zernike test. 2: Experimental aspects.
abstract: A step-by-step procedure for the manufacture of Zernike disks and the design and fabrication of a laboratory Zernike test instrument are described. A laboratory wavefront error simulator is used to evaluate the loworder aberration measurement sensitivity of the Zernike test instrument. Measurement sensitivities were found to be better than lambda/100 for all the low-order aberration types.
