Question I seem to have encountered a graphics glitch using v 6.04. I have been bending a plane power singlet to introduce SA and CMA. When I draw the lens the rays are refracted at the front surface but appear to project back at the second surface. To check this, enter any radius of surface 1, and...
Question How can I control the size and location of the Exit Pupil in my optical system during optimization? Synopsis Specifying size and location of exit pupil during optimization Symptoms The Exit Pupil is the paraxial image of the Aperture Stop in image space. The optics between the Aperture...
Question As instructed, when I want to alter a public CCL file, I first make a copy of the file and place it in the private CCL directory. But now when I compile the CCL's in the private directory, I encounter a bunch of errors. I thought this was the recommended approach. What is the problem?
Question When I click on any cell in the spreadsheet, the whole cell gets highlighted. If I want to change only a part of the value in the cell, I have to click in the command line. Is there a way to get around this? In Excel, I can double-click my mouse or Press [F2] key to accomplish this. ...
Question I am using OSLO-EDU and I am having trouble understanding how to perform an optimization in OSLO. I think it would help me if you can demonstrate a very simple optimization task: How do I use OSLO to optimize the radius and conic of a mirrored surface to solve for a specific set of foci...
Question How do I set up a cylindrical lens in OSLO? If I want the orientation of the cylinder of the lens to be oriented in the orthogonal direction, how do I do that? Synopsis Setting up a cylindrical lens in OSLO Solution For purposes of discussion, we will assume that you want to make surface 3...
Question Amit Itagi "Hi, I am looking for a numerical technique to model light propagation through a particular device. The device is a waveguide lens. I have a planar dielectric waveguide with a thickness on the length scale of a wavelength. But the width is on the length scale of mm's. The...
