Download or read book Modern Ophthalmic Optics written by José Alonso and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-04-11 with total page 565 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive account of the most recent developments in modern ophthalmic optics. It makes use of the powerful matrix formalism to describe curvature and power, providing a unified view of the optical and geometrical properties of lenses. This unified approach is applicable to the design and properties of not only spectacle lenses, but also contact and intraocular lenses (IOL). The newest developments in lens design, manufacturing and testing are discussed, with an emphasis on the description of free-form technology, which has surpassed traditional manufacturing methods and allows digital lenses to be specifically designed with the unique requirements of the user. Other important topics which are covered include modern lens materials, up-to-date lens measuring techniques, contact and intraocular lenses, progressive power lenses, low vision aids, ocular protection and coatings. Providing a broad overview of recent developments in the field, it is ideal for researchers, manufacturers and practitioners involved in ophthalmic optics.

Download or read book Modern Geometrical Optics written by Richard Ditteon and published by Wiley-Interscience. This book was released on 1997-11-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Introduction to Modern Optics for Students in Engineering and Applied Science written by Stephen Arnold and published by . This book was released on 2018-08-21 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The following is a text taught to engineering and applied science students at the NYU Tandon (Polytechnic) School of Engineering in 2017 and 2018. The course met for four hours a week during one fourteen week semester. Unlike other texts in Modern Optics this text is intended to be used by students in both engineering and applied science at a junior or senior level, and to support specialized interdisciplinary applied optics courses given at a graduate level, such as Bio-Optics. By introducing it in the junior year students with interest arrive fresh from their introductory physics courses. The course emphasizes fundamentals starting with Maxwell's equations, which is where the introductory physics sequence ends, and applies these fundamentals to current interests in applied science and technology. Appropriate to the level of the course, the mathematics represents Maxwell's Equations in their integral form. Where advanced math was added (e.g. Fourier Transform), the students were introduced to this as if taught in an applied math course.Take-home Experiments: There are also take-home laboratory experiment assignments dispersed within the text, and requiring a small inventory of parts (e.g. transmission diffraction grating, red laser pointer, aspheric lens, 1" diameter acrylic sphere, and dye solution). With these parts and common things found around a typical home, 9 experiments are assigned to support the concepts taught in the course. One of these involves turning a Smart phone into a microscope. Another turns a Smart phone into a spectrometer, and a third uses the phone as a photometer.Applications: Some of the many applications discussed are Optical Tweezers, Holographic Diffraction Grating, Demystifying the structure of DNA from Rosalind Franklin's X-ray diffraction image (Photo 51), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), nano-plasmonics, Fabry-Perot resonator, Whispering Gallery Mode sensor, LASER, Confocal microscope, and Super high-resolution microscopy (STED).
