Abstract

We present a method for a cascading null test using twin computer-generated holograms to calibrate errors in null correctors. This will allow us to test large aspheres an order of magnitude better than current limits. We discuss various sources of CGH errors and how to calibrate them. We also mention some ways to measure and calibrate the errors in the test optics.
