Anastigmatic

• Aplanatic: free from spherical aberration and coma.

• Stigmatic ~ pointy• Astigmatism: No pointy• Anastigmatic: No-No pointy = pointy• Anastigmatic: free from spherical aberration,

coma, and astigmatism• Aplanatic: coined by John Herschel• Astigmatism: coined by George Airy

Thin lens astigmatism2

IIIS Ж When the stop is a the thin lens astigmatism is fixed.

Shifting the stop in the presence of spherical aberration or coma Allows changing astigmatism

Controlling astigmatism

Prof. Jose Sasian

1) Stop position: singlet lens

Coma and astigmatism are zero!

2) Canceling/balancing negative and positive astigmatism

Prof. Jose Sasian

• In this case one adds a lens which contributes the opposite amount of astigmatism.

• The spherical aberration and coma of the new lens are corrected by the system that has the degrees of freedom for such.

• New lens hopefully contributes little comaand spherical aberration.

3-a) Adding a degree of freedom

Prof. Jose Sasian

3-b) Adding a degree of freedomRitchey-Chretien I

At best surface (Sagittal field surface)

1.7 waves of astigmatism @ f.3.3

Prof. Jose Sasian

3-c) Adding a degree of freedomRitchey-Chretien II

0.0 waves of astigmatism @ f/1.9 after conic tweak

Prof. Jose Sasian

4) Shells near the image plane (or aspheric plate)

Prof. Jose Sasian

Offner unit magnification relay

•Offner relay system:•Three spherical mirrors•Negative unit magnification•No primary aberrations•Ring field concept•Improvement of field with shell

Petzval sum:

For a system of thin lenses:

Prof. Jose Sasian

Field curvature interpretation• Assume same glass and consider sag

of Petzval surface at a height y:

• If the Petzval sum is zero then the lens has constant thickness across the aperture or across the field.

• Compare with the image displacement S caused by a plano parallel plate:

• The conclusion is that Petzval field curvature arises because the overall lens thickness variation across the aperture (in the general case the index of refraction enters as a weight).

Thickness variation in atelecentric lens

Prof. Jose Sasian

Four classical ways• 1) A thick meniscus lens can contribute optical power but no field

curvature if both surfaces have the same radius. Consider doubleGasuss lens. Note the correction for color.

• 2) Separated thin lenses: Bulges and constrictionsConsider the Cooke triplet and lenses for microlithography.

• 3) A field flattener: Fully contributes to Petzval but not to spherical, coma, or astigmatism. Also there is little contribution to optical power.Consider Petzval lens with a field flattener.

• 4) New achromat: use to advantage new glass types.

1) By Symmetry about the stop or phantom stop

Distortion is an odd aberration: It can be cancelled by symmetryAbout the stop

2) Aspheric plate or bending a field flattener

Prof. Jose Sasian

Exercise: Galilean telescope

A plano-convex lens objective with a focal length of about 750-1000 mm.A plano-concave lens for the eyepiece (ocular) with a focal length of about 50 mm. The objective lens was stopped downto an aperture of 12.5 to 25 mm. The field of view is about 15 arc-minutes. The instrument's magnifying power is 15-20.
