OPTICAL LENS SYSTEMS DESIGN FORMULAE FOR HIGH SPEED COMPUTERS.

Abstract

Flair was developed further. Flair is an automatic lens system correction and evaluation program that permits simultaneous correction and minimization of the members of a set of 35 image errors derived from 3d order theory, ray tracing, and differential ray tracing. Options are provided for minimization of the mean square wavefront deformation on axis and at the 2 field points, and for minimization of the paraxial angles of incidence. A third option permits the user to define a set of rays whose deviations he wishes to minimize. Upon completion of a design run, the program prepares and prints a table of geometric optical frequency response data for the axial image and for the images at the 0.7 zone and edge of the field.
