Description

Lens Design: Automatic and Quasi-Autonomous Computational Methods and Techniques (Second Edition) shows how these new tools can design systems in minutes that would have required weeks or months of labor using older methods. Powerful search routines that can quickly produce excellent designs starting with plane-parallel plates are described. The principles are explained, and data files are provided so the user can duplicate these systems and learn how to use the new software to solve unexpected problems should they occur. Automatic substitution of real glass types for a glass model, and automatic matching to the testplates of a selected vendor, are fully explained, with examples. Part of IOP Series in Emerging Technologies in Optics and Photonics.
