  • Chapter 3 (Aberrations)
    Chapter 3 Aberrations 3.1 Introduction In Chap. 2 we discussed the image-forming characteristics of optical systems, but we limited our consideration to an infinitesimal thread- like region about the optical axis called the paraxial region. In this chapter we will consider, in general terms, the behavior of lenses with finite apertures and fields of view. It has been pointed out that well- corrected optical systems behave nearly according to the rules of paraxial imagery given in Chap. 2. This is another way of stating that a lens without aberrations forms an image of the size and in the loca- tion given by the equations for the paraxial or first-order region. We shall measure the aberrations by the amount by which rays miss the paraxial image point. It can be seen that aberrations may be determined by calculating the location of the paraxial image of an object point and then tracing a large number of rays (by the exact trigonometrical ray-tracing equa- tions of Chap. 10) to determine the amounts by which the rays depart from the paraxial image point. Stated this baldly, the mathematical determination of the aberrations of a lens which covered any reason- able field at a real aperture would seem a formidable task, involving an almost infinite amount of labor. However, by classifying the various types of image faults and by understanding the behavior of each type, the work of determining the aberrations of a lens system can be sim- plified greatly, since only a few rays need be traced to evaluate each aberration; thus the problem assumes more manageable proportions.

  • PETZVAL's LENS and CAMERA by Rudolf Kingslake
    PETZVAL'S LENS AND CAMERA by Rudolf Kingslake Joseph Max Petzval was born on January 6, 1807, in Hungary of German parentage; he died 84 years later in September 1891. Being a member of the mathematics faculty of the University of Vienna, he naturally approached the problem of lens design from a mathematical rather than from an empir­ ical standpoint, which probably accounted in part for his suc­ cess. He actually designed two lenses in 1839, the Portrait lens which he immediately commissioned P. F. von Voigtlander to make, and the Orthoscopic lens which was not manufactured T THE OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT of the Daguerreotype until 1856. Petvzal's interest in optics continued throughout the A process in 1839, Austria was represented by Professor A. rest of his life, and he reported in 1843 that "by order of the F. von Ettingshausen. He was so impressed with the possibilities General-Director Archduke Ludwig, he was assisted in his of photography that upon his return to Vienna, he induced his calculations for several years by two officers and eight friend and colleague the mathematician Joseph Petzval to undertake the design of a wide-aperture lens suitable for por­ traiture. Petzval, then 33 years old, devoted himeslf enthusiasti­ cally to the problem and was amazingly successful. He used a well-corrected telescope objective the right way round for his front component, and added an airspaced doublet behind it, the rear doublet being mathematically designed to give sharp de­ finition and to flatten the field. The formula was handed to the old-established Viennese optician Voigtlander, who first supplied the lens to a focal length of 150 mm and an aperture of f/3.6, mounted in a conical metal camera having a circular ground-glass focusing screen 94 mm diameter with a focusing magnifier permanently installed behind it.

  • Representation of Wavefront Aberrations
    Slide 1 4th Wavefront Congress - San Francisco - February 2003 Representation of Wavefront Aberrations Larry N. Thibos School of Optometry, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN 47405 [email protected] http://research.opt.indiana.edu/Library/wavefronts/index.htm The goal of this tutorial is to provide a brief introduction to how the optical imperfections of a human eye are represented by wavefront aberration maps and how these maps may be interpreted in a clinical context. Slide 2 Lecture outline • What is an aberration map? – Ray errors – Optical path length errors – Wavefront errors • How are aberration maps displayed? – Ray deviations – Optical path differences – Wavefront shape • How are aberrations classified? – Zernike expansion • How is the magnitude of an aberration specified? – Wavefront variance – Equivalent defocus – Retinal image quality • How are the derivatives of the aberration map interpreted? My lecture is organized around the following 5 questions. •First, What is an aberration map? Because the aberration map is such a fundamental description of the eye’ optical properties, I’m going to describe it from three different, but complementary, viewpoints: first as misdirected rays of light, second as unequal optical distances between object and image, and third as misshapen optical wavefronts. •Second, how are aberration maps displayed? The answer to that question depends on whether the aberrations are described in terms of rays or wavefronts. •Third, how are aberrations classified? Several methods are available for classifying aberrations. I will describe for you the most popular method, called Zernike analysis. lFourth, how is the magnitude of an aberration specified? I will describe three simple measures of the aberration map that are useful for quantifying the magnitude of optical error in a person’s eye.

  • Wavefront Aberrations
    11 Wavefront Aberrations Mirko Resan, Miroslav Vukosavljević and Milorad Milivojević Eye Clinic, Military Medical Academy, Belgrade, Serbia 1. Introduction The eye is an optical system having several optical elements that focus light rays representing images onto the retina. Imperfections in the components and materials in the eye may cause light rays to deviate from the desired path. These deviations, referred to as optical or wavefront aberrations, result in blurred images and decreased visual performance (1). Wavefront aberrations are optical imperfections of the eye that prevent light from focusing perfectly on the retina, resulting in defects in the visual image. There are two kinds of aberrations: 1. Lower order aberrations (0, 1st and 2nd order) 2. Higher order aberrations (3rd, 4th, … order) Lower order aberrations are another way to describe refractive errors: myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, correctible with glasses, contact lenses or refractive surgery. Lower order aberrations is a term used in wavefront technology to describe second-order Zernike polynomials. Second-order Zernike terms represent the conventional aberrations defocus (myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism). Lower order aberrations make up about 85 per cent of all aberrations in the eye. Higher order aberrations are optical imperfections which cannot be corrected by any reliable means of present technology. All eyes have at least some degree of higher order aberrations. These aberrations are now more recognized because technology has been developed to diagnose them properly. Wavefront aberrometer is actually used to diagnose and measure higher order aberrations. Higher order aberrations is a term used to describe Zernike aberrations above second-order. Third-order Zernike terms are coma and trefoil.

    Optical Design (S15) Joseph A. Shaw – Montana State University The Wave-Front Aberration Polynomial Ideal imaging systems perform point-to-point imaging. This requires that a spherical wave front expanding from each object point (o) is converted to a spherical wave front converging to a corresponding image point (o’). However, real optical systems produce an imperfect “aberrated” image. The aberrated wave front indicated by the solid red line below corresponds to rays near the axis focusing near point a and rays near the margin of the pupil focusing near point b. optical system o b a o’ W(x,y) = awf –rs entrance pupil exit pupil The “wave front aberration function” describes the optical path difference between the aberrated wave front and a spherical reference wave (typically measured in m or “waves”).

  • The Techniques and Material Aesthetics of the Daguerreotype
    The Techniques and Material Aesthetics of the Daguerreotype Michael A. Robinson Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Photographic History Photographic History Research Centre De Montfort University Leicester Supervisors: Dr. Kelley Wilder and Stephen Brown March 2017 Robinson: The Techniques and Material Aesthetics of the Daguerreotype For Grania Grace ii Robinson: The Techniques and Material Aesthetics of the Daguerreotype Abstract This thesis explains why daguerreotypes look the way they do. It does this by retracing the pathway of discovery and innovation described in historical accounts, and combining this historical research with artisanal, tacit, and causal knowledge gained from synthesizing new daguerreotypes in the laboratory. Admired for its astonishing clarity and holographic tones, each daguerreotype contains a unique material story about the process of its creation. Clues from the historical record that report improvements in the art are tested in practice to explicitly understand the cause for effects described in texts and observed in historic images. This approach raises awareness of the materiality of the daguerreotype as an image, and the materiality of the daguerreotype as a process. The structure of this thesis is determined by the techniques and materials of the daguerreotype in the order of practice related to improvements in speed, tone and spectral sensitivity, which were the prime motivation for advancements. Chapters are devoted to the silver plate, iodine sensitizing, halogen acceleration, and optics and their contribution toward image quality is revealed. The evolution of the lens is explained using some of the oldest cameras extant. Daguerre’s discovery of the latent image is presented as the result of tacit experience rather than fortunate accident.
