Abstract
Application of Twyman–Green interferometry is extended to achieve semi-quantitative assessment of optical qualities of a nonlinear crystal. Interferograms of a proustite crystal are analyzed and effects of crystal imperfections on the conversion efficiency of a parametric upconversion system are evaluated.
