moire_phase_to_shift — OPTICS moire_align op

• Data kinds: none → table (an op determined by its arguments alone — it takes no image or data input)

• Call: import fullseye as fs; fs.ledger.moire_phase_to_shift(phase_rad=0.5, phase_ref_rad=0.0, p_mask_um=2.0, p_wafer_um=2.04, moving='wafer', coarse_shift_nm=None) (to call the implementation directly, import moirealign; moirealign.moire_phase_to_shift(phase_rad=0.5, phase_ref_rad=0.0, p_mask_um=2.0, p_wafer_um=2.04, moving='wafer', coarse_shift_nm=None); from the registry, opsoptics.get("moire_phase_to_shift"))

Usage

Fringe phase change to displacement δ (nm): δ = Δφ / (dφ/dδ), dφ/dδ = ±2π / p of the grating that moved.

ずれは動いた格子のピッチ 1 つ分で折り返す(ambiguity_nm)。粗いが絶対的なずれ(例: 直接の像の相互相関) coarse_shift_nm を渡すと fringe.absolute_phase で次数を決め、折り返さない値を返す(粗い値の誤差が ambiguity の半分未満であること)。返り値の fringe_shift_um は縞が実際に動いた量(= M × δ、符号つき)。

返り値: dict(shift_nm, ambiguity_nm, order(粗い値で決めた次数、無ければ 0)、fringe_shift_um, magnification)。Raises ValueError: 位相が有限でない、同じピッチ、綴り違い。

Family-wide input contract (fail-closed)

Every optics op validates its input before computing (nothing slips through silently):

• Units are baked into the argument name — _mm / _um / _deg / _mrad. Confusing mm with µm does not crash; it yields a plausible-looking wrong answer, so the name prevents it. Nothing here guesses the unit from the magnitude.

• Strings raise ValueError — float('50') succeeds, so an unparsed configuration value would slip through as a length (measured: thin_lens('50', '200') returned a plausible 66.667 mm). bool is refused too, as the implicit promotion True == 1.

• complex / masked arrays raise ValueError (real-valued slots only; silently dropping the imaginary part or peeling off the mask is refused). NaN/Inf raises ValueError on every input.

• Division by zero and its relatives are refused by name: focal length 0, radius of curvature 0, refractive index <= 0, a fully opaque aperture (all zeros, so the normalisation is 0/0), a PSF whose sum is <= 0, a Stokes vector with S0 = 0, and an object sitting at the front focal point (the image is at infinity).

• Only two ops return a non-finite value, and both state it as a contract: depth_of_field returns far_mm = inf beyond the hyperfocal distance (that is what the hyperfocal distance means), and gaussian_beam returns wavefront_radius_mm = inf at the waist (the radius of curvature of a plane wavefront). Both also return a finite companion (far_is_infinite / curvature_per_mm). Any other silent NaN/Inf is detected internally and raises ValueError — "float64 overflowed" and "the answer is infinite" are different claims, so the first is never returned wearing the face of the second.

• Size caps: generated grids are capped by optics.MAX_GRID (4096); supplied fields/PSFs/apertures by optics.MAX_FIELD_ELEMENTS (2^24); ABCD element chains by optics.MAX_SYSTEM_ELEMENTS (1024); Zernike by MAX_ZERNIKE_TERMS (512) / MAX_ZERNIKE_ORDER (40) / MAX_ZERNIKE_BASIS (2^25). This closes, fail-closed, the paths where a small argument triggers a huge internal allocation (measured: n_max=40 × 4096² needs 108 GB).

• Physically impossible states are refused too: a Stokes vector with degree of polarisation > 1, negative transmittance, negative intensity, and invalid Zernike indices such as n-|m| odd.
