RAY-BASED SCP OPTIMIZATION
At this point, the higher-order aberrations have been significantly reduced, and the geometrical spot size, while not good enough to meet the design requirement, is much better. There is a problem in that the fifth and seventh-order aberrations are both overcorrected (positive). However, to finish...
EBERT.LEN - A SIMPLE GRATING MONOCHROMATOR
Ebert is a simple grating monochromator that uses a plane grating. It should be studied to understand telecentric systems, rectangular special apertures, off-axis field points as base operating conditions, and the use of diffraction gratings. The Ebert monochromator, also known as the Fastie-Ebert...
OSLO Surface Types
Surfaces in OSLO can be refracting, reflecting, or total-internal-reflecting (TIR) Aspheres and Freeform Surfaces Conic (parabolic, elliptical, hyperbolic) Cylindrical Surfaces Toroidal Polynomial asphere even orders Symmetric polynomial asphere all orders Asymmetric polynomial asphere all orders ...
Operational Tools
Tools are used to perform or facilitate certain operations, which can then be entered or imported into TracePro. Bulk Scatter Properties Creating a TracePro Bulk Scatter Property for a Diffuser.pdf Diffuser_BulkScatterExample.omlb DiffuseExample.txt Property Optimization Example.pptx Diffuser...
PERFMAG2.LEN - A Perfect Lens
Perfmag2 is an example of a perfect lens. It should be studied to understand the difference between a perfect lens and a paraxial lens, as well as the definitions of aperture-based operating conditions used in OSLO. A perfect lens is one that forms a sharp undistorted image of an extended object on...

Keeping post scan mirror surfaces in a static location
Question I have a system with a mirror at 45 deg tilt. I invoked the tilt and bend option on the tilted mirror in order to set the remaining surfaces at the correct 90 deg orientation. However, now I want to see the effect of tilting (or decentering ) the mirror alone with respect to the other...
SCL versus CCL
Question What's the difference between SCL and CCL? Synopsis SCL versus CCL Solution SCL is a subset of CCL than uses predefined variables and is compiled "on-the-fly", so it is slower and less comprehensive than CCL. However, for simple tasks that require only a few lines of code, SCL may be...
