Removal of ghost images by using tilted element optical systems with polynomial surfaces for aberration compensation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A novel solution to problematic ghost images is implemented by using tilted lens elements with polynomial surfaces. Tilting the lens surfaces sends reflections out of the imaging path. The nonrotationally symmetric polynomial surfaces correct aberrations caused by tilts. The complex lens surfaces are fabricated by using gray-scale lithographic patterning of hybrid solgel glass.

Third-order aberration analysis of tilted-pupil optical systems∗
The aberration field of an optical system with a tilted pupil is explored through expanding the vector expressions of the third-order wavefront aberrations. First, the vector forms of the wavefront aberrations are modified to obtain the aberration expressions with the pupil tilted; full field displays of coma and astigmatism in this situation are given. Then, the third-order aberration formulas...

In this paper, we summarize our initial experiences in designing head-worn displays with free-form optical surfaces. Typical optical surfaces implemented in raytrace codes today are functions mapping two dimensional vectors to real numbers. The majority of optical designs to date have relied on conic sections and polynomials as the functions of choice. The choice of conic sections is justified ...

متن کاملOptical properties of a semi-infinite medium consist of graphene based hyperbolic meta-materials with tilted optical axis
In this paper, the optical properties of a semi-infinite medium composed of graphen-based hyperbolic meta-materials with the optical axis were tilted with respect to its boundary with air, by using the Maxwell equations; then the homogeneous effective medium approximation method was studied. The results showed that the orientation of the structure layers (geometric induced anisotropy) affec...
