| Comments | This is a comparison of flatness measurements of an optical flat on an aperture of 300 mm diameter. The participants have to measure the inner part of 300 mm with optical instruments to avoid possible scratches on the surface when measuring with tactile instruments. The achievable measurement uncertainty of the flatness measurements should be less than 15 nm (k=2). |
