Stops & Pupils Optical Design (S15) Joseph A. Shaw – Montana State University Aperture and Field Stops Stops determine the light-collecting area and field of view of an optical system. We can find the stops by tracing two rays called the marginal (or axial) ray and chief (or principal) ray. Aperture stop - limits the area over which light is collected. Field stop - limits the angle from which light is collected (field of view). lens det object FS AS Marginal (axial) ray Ray from the axial point on the object, to the edge (or margin) of the aperture stop, and through the center of the field stop. Chief (principal) ray Ray from the top or bottom of the object, through the center of the aperture stop, and to the edge of the field stop. 1 Optical Design (S15) Joseph A. Shaw – Montana State University Stops in a Camera Nearly always in a camera, the aperture stop is an iris embedded somewhere within the lens system and the field stop is the film or detector (such as a CCD). Iris (AS) det object FS • marginal ray is limited by the iris, not by any of the lens elements. • chief ray passes through center of iris (the aperture stop). • chief ray angle in object space = “field of view” or “field angle” 2 Optical Design (S15) Joseph A.

  • Breaking Down the “Cosine Fourth Power Law”
    Breaking Down The “Cosine Fourth Power Law” By Ronian Siew, inopticalsolutions.com Why are the corners of the field of view in the image captured by a camera lens usually darker than the center? For one thing, camera lenses by design often introduce “vignetting” into the image, which is the deliberate clipping of rays at the corners of the field of view in order to cut away excessive lens aberrations. But, it is also known that corner areas in an image can get dark even without vignetting, due in part to the so-called “cosine fourth power law.” 1 According to this “law,” when a lens projects the image of a uniform source onto a screen, in the absence of vignetting, the illumination flux density (i.e., the optical power per unit area) across the screen from the center to the edge varies according to the fourth power of the cosine of the angle between the optic axis and the oblique ray striking the screen. Actually, optical designers know this “law” does not apply generally to all lens conditions.2 – 10 Fundamental principles of optical radiative flux transfer in lens systems allow one to tune the illumination distribution across the image by varying lens design characteristics. In this article, we take a tour into the fascinating physics governing the illumination of images in lens systems. Relative Illumination In Lens Systems In lens design, one characterizes the illumination distribution across the screen where the image resides in terms of a quantity known as the lens’ relative illumination — the ratio of the irradiance (i.e., the power per unit area) at any off-axis position of the image to the irradiance at the center of the image.

The concept of the aberration function is extended to define two functions that describe the light irra- diance distribution at the exit pupil plane and at the image plane of an axially symmetric optical system. Similar to the wavefront aberration function, the irradiance function is expanded as a polynomial, where individual terms represent basic irradiance distribution patterns. Conservation of flux in optical imaging systems is used to derive the specific relation between the irradiance coefficients and wavefront aberration coefficients. It is shown that the coefficients of the irradiance functions can be expressed in terms of wavefront aberration coefficients and first- order system quantities. The theoretical results—these are irradiance coefficient formulas—are in agreement with real ray tracing. © 2017 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE) [DOI: 10.1117/1.OE.56.1.015104] Keywords: aberration theory; wavefront aberrations; irradiance.

  • To See the Invisible: the Quest of Imaging Vitreous J
    DOP42005.qxd 4/15/08 11:34 AM Page 5 Meyer CH (ed): Vital Dyes in Vitreoretinal Surgery. Dev Ophthalmol. Basel, Karger, 2008, vol 42, pp 5–28 To See the Invisible: The Quest of Imaging Vitreous J. Sebag VMR Institute, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, Calif., USA Abstract Purpose: Imaging vitreous has long been a quest to view what is, by design, invisible. This chapter will review important historical aspects, past and present imaging methodologies, and new technologies that are currently in development for future research and clinical applications. Methods: Classic and modern histologic techniques, dark-field slit microscopy, clinical slit lamp biomicroscopy, standard and scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO), ultrasonography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), com- bined OCT-SLO, magnetic resonance and Raman spectroscopies, and dynamic light scattering method- ologies are presented. Results: The best available histologic techniques for imaging vitreous are those that avoid rapid dehydration of vitreous specimens. Dark-field slit microscopy enables in vitro imaging without dehydration or tissue fixatives. OCT enables better in vivo visualization of the vitreoretinal inter- face than SLO and ultrasonography, but does not adequately image the vitreous body. The combination of OCT with SLO has provided useful new imaging capabilities, but only at the vitreoretinal interface. Dynamic light scattering can evaluate the vitreous body by determining the average sizes of vitreous macromolecules in aging, disease, and as a means to assess the effects of pharmacologic vitreolysis. Raman spectroscopy can detect altered vitreous molecules, such as glycated collagen and other pro- teins in diabetic vitreopathy and possibly other diseases. Conclusions: A better understanding of normal vitreous physiology and structure and how these change in aging and disease is needed to develop more effective therapies and prevention.

  • Aperture Efficiency and Wide Field-Of-View Optical Systems Mark R
    Aperture Efficiency and Wide Field-of-View Optical Systems Mark R. Ackermann, Sandia National Laboratories Rex R. Kiziah, USAF Academy John T. McGraw and Peter C. Zimmer, J.T. McGraw & Associates Abstract Wide field-of-view optical systems are currently finding significant use for applications ranging from exoplanet search to space situational awareness. Systems ranging from small camera lenses to the 8.4-meter Large Synoptic Survey Telescope are designed to image large areas of the sky with increased search rate and scientific utility. An interesting issue with wide-field systems is the known compromises in aperture efficiency. They either use only a fraction of the available aperture or have optical elements with diameters larger than the optical aperture of the system. In either case, the complete aperture of the largest optical component is not fully utilized for any given field point within an image. System costs are driven by optical diameter (not aperture), focal length, optical complexity, and field-of-view. It is important to understand the optical design trade space and how cost, performance, and physical characteristics are influenced by various observing requirements. This paper examines the aperture efficiency of refracting and reflecting systems with one, two and three mirrors. Copyright © 2018 Advanced Maui Optical and Space Surveillance Technologies Conference (AMOS) – www.amostech.com Introduction Optical systems exhibit an apparent falloff of image intensity from the center to edge of the image field as seen in Figure 1. This phenomenon, known as vignetting, results when the entrance pupil is viewed from an off-axis point in either object or image space.

Under the auspices of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (W.A.V.A.), the International Committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature (I.C.V.A.N.) appointed in Giessen, 1965, a Subcommittee on Histology and Embryology which started a working relation with the Subcommittee on Histology of the former International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. In Mexico City, 1971, this Subcommittee presented a document entitled Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft as a basis for the continued work of the newly-appointed Subcommittee on Histological Nomenclature. This resulted in the editing of the Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft II (Toulouse, 1974), followed by preparations for publication of a Nomina Histologica Veterinaria.

  • A Practical Guide to Panoramic Multispectral Imaging
    A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO PANORAMIC MULTISPECTRAL IMAGING By Antonino Cosentino 66 PANORAMIC MULTISPECTRAL IMAGING Panoramic Multispectral Imaging is a fast and mobile methodology to perform high resolution imaging (up to about 25 pixel/mm) with budget equipment and it is targeted to institutions or private professionals that cannot invest in costly dedicated equipment and/or need a mobile and lightweight setup. This method is based on panoramic photography that uses a panoramic head to precisely rotate a camera and shoot a sequence of images around the entrance pupil of the lens, eliminating parallax error. The proposed system is made of consumer level panoramic photography tools and can accommodate any imaging device, such as a modified digital camera, an InGaAs camera for infrared reflectography and a thermal camera for examination of historical architecture.
