Introduction to Lens Design
Cambridge University Press (Verlag)
978-1-108-49432-8 (ISBN)
Optical lenses have many important applications, from telescopes and spectacles, to microscopes and lasers. This concise, introductory book provides an overview of the subtle art of lens design. It covers the fundamental, optical theory, and the practical methods and tools employed in lens design, in a succinct and accessible manner. Topics covered include first-order optics, optical aberrations, achromatic doublets, optical relays, lens tolerances, designing with off-the-shelf lenses, miniature lenses, and zoom lenses. Covering all the key concepts of lens design, and providing suggestions for further reading at the end of each chapter, this book is an essential resource for graduate students working in optics and photonics, in addition to engineers and technicians working in the optics and imaging industries.
José Sasián is Professor of Optical Design at the College of Optical Sciences at the University of Arizona. He has taught a course on lens design for more than twenty years and has published extensively in the field. He has worked as a consultant in lens design for the optics industry, and has been responsible for the design of a variety of successful and novel lens systems.
