Optical alignment refers to the process of precisely positioning optical components (lenses, mirrors, fibers, etc.) relative to each other to achieve optimal performance of an optical system. This is crucial for various applications, including laser systems, telescopes, microscopes, and fiber optic communication, where even slight misalignments can significantly degrade image quality, signal strength, or overall system efficiency. Techniques used in optical alignment vary depending on the application and precision required, and can involve manual adjustments, automated positioning systems, and specialized alignment tools.
