Allen Davis and Allen Camacho traveled to Janos Technology on April 23, 2001. They met with Doug Ballantine, the Technical Sales Engineer, and Lois M. Eddy, the Quality Assurance Manager. After going over the goals of the inspection of the four uncoated lenses, Ms. Eddy introduced them to Belinda J. Alward who is in charge of Janos inspection. She made a place available for the inspection and the recording of the results.
Janos was not able at that time to check the radii of the lenses, so we agreed we could use the data that Janos had taken when they had the lenses in their setup.
Below are the results of the inspections as verified by Al Camacho and Al Davis and the supporting documentation. Click on thumbnails for a larger view of graphics.
