Modern Geometrical Optics, Hardcover by Ditteon, Richard, ISBN 0471169226, ISBN-13 9780471169222, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Extends beyond matrix methods, emphasizing y-nu ray tracing methods which are used most commonly by optical engineers and are easier to adapt to third-order optics and y-y diagrams. Moving from fundamental principles to advanced optical analysis and design methods, the author bridges the gap between optical theory taught in introductory physics texts and advanced books on lens design. Coverage includes field of view, stops, pupils and windows, exact ray tracing, image quality, and optimization of the image. Appendix C is a user's manual for lens design and analysis software available via Wiley's FTP site. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

SynopsisThis text explores and studies the geometrical optics necessary for the design of optical systems. Containing examples ranging from the simple to the advanced, each chapter also includes an extensive problem set. Software is available via Wiley's FTP site to assist in working out real design problems and analysis and also to serve as an introduction to the use of commercial lens design software., From basic terms and concepts to advanced optimization techniques-a complete, practical introduction to modern geometrical optics Most books on geometrical optics present only matrix methods. Modern Geometrical Optics, although it covers matrix methods, emphasizes y-nu ray tracing methods, which are used most commonly by optical engineers and are easier to adapt to third-order optics and y-? diagrams. Moving by logical degrees from fundamental principles to advanced optical analysis and design methods, this book bridges the gap between the optical theory taught in introductory physics texts and advanced books on lens design. Providing the background material needed to understand advanced material, it covers important topics such as field of view, stops, pupils and windows, exact ray tracing, image quality, and optimization of the image. Important features of Modern Geometrical Optics include: * Examples of all important techniques presented * Extensive problem sets in each chapter * Optical analysis and design software * Chapters covering y-? diagrams, optimization, and lens design This book is both a primer for professionals called upon to design optical systems and an ideal text for courses in modern geometrical optics. Companion Software Special lens design and analysis software capable of solving all problems presented in the book is available via Wiley's FTP site. This software also serves as an introduction to the use of commercial lens design software. Appendix C is a user's manual for the software., Dieses Buch fa t alle Aspekte der geometrischen Optik zusammen, die f r den Entwurf optischer Systeme ben tigt werden. Zahlreiche Beispiele und bungsaufgaben am Ende jedes Kapitels erleichtern das Verst ndnis und das Einpr gen des Stoffes. ber den FTP-Server von Wiley ist Software erh ltlich, die Unterst tzung bei der L sung von Design- und Analysenaufgaben in der Praxis bietet.
