Abstract:
The primary goal of this course is to provide the basic tools and knowledge needed to design optical systems. At the end of the course, students will be able to take system requirements, select possible components and approaches, create candidate designs and analyze and optimize their performance. They will learn and utilize standard optical design tools, particularly ray-tracing, as well as learning how to create custom system models with wave, polarization, or Gaussian-beam optical modeling. The course will cover:
1) Ray optics: basic design techniques
2) Wave optics in isotopic Media
3) Design concepts for optical instruments: microscope, telescope, camera lenses and zoom lenses
4) Aberration in optical system: real world problem
5) How to select optical components: lenses, fibers, optical source and detectors
6) Optical CAD tools discussion: ZEMAX
