Evaluation environment
Coaxial tube:  Kohler illumination type    /   Critical illumination type 
Objective lens: PEIR Plan 10X
Camera:BU406M(2048 x 2048, 5um)
Light source: SIS-150-AIR + band pass 1100nm
Inspecting object: Mirror

<Definition of the uniformity>
The average brightness in red square is defined as criteria of 100% uniformity.
