9780824784034: Lens Design: 27 (Optical Engineering)

Synopsis

This second edition describes current techniques for fashioning single-element lenses, two-element achromats, air-spaced triplets and complex wide-angle and zoom lenses. More than 30 types of lens design systems are covered. New information is presented on mechanically and optically compensated zoom lenses for use in television, photography, projection and microscopy. Optical computer programs that solve numerous lens design problems are provided on an IBM-compatible disk. This package is intended for lens designers, including optical, laser, photo-optical, mechanical, infrared systems, motion picture, and television engineers; optical physicists; laser scientists; and graduate-level and continuing-education students taking courses in lens design. College or university bookstores may order five or more copies at a special student price which is available from Marcel Dekker Inc upon request.

From the Back Cover

Featuring over 700 references, equations, tables, and drawings, this highly lauded and best-selling reference emphasizes practical designs of over 30 lens systems, including single-element, two-element achromats, air-spaced triplets, projection lenses, and sophisticated wide-angle and zoom lenses. It comes with software that supplies starting solutions for computer optimization programs lens prescriptions and several shorter programs to compute the refractive index of glasses from a variety of manufacturers, create lens drawings, perform zoom computations, do test glass fitting, and calculate third-order solutions for single lenses, achromats, and triplets.

Synopsis

Serves as a reference for those working in the field or a text for courses in lens design. Explains how to create a wide range of lens systems via lens optimization programs, describing techniques for fashioning single element lenses, two element achromats, and air speed triplets. Covers 31 types of
