We have investigated the variation of spherical aberration of the anterior and posterior surface in a Korean sample population with various age between 20 to 71 years old. We used Pentacam (Oculus Inc., Germany) to measure the corneal radius, asphericity, and spherical aberration of 290 patients with normal cornea. There were negative correlation between corneal anterior radius and spherical aberration(r = -0.22, p<0.0001), and, there were negative correlation between corneal posterior radius and spherical aberration(r=-0.27, p < 0.0001). There were positive correlation between anterior asphericity and spherical aberration(r = 0.24, p < 0.0001), however there were negative correlation between posterior asphericity and spherical aberration(r = -0.17, p=0.00288).The average of anterior spherical aberration and posterior spherical aberration was $0.482{\pm}0.099{\mu}m$ and $-0.098{\pm}0.029{\mu}m$. The average of spherical aberration was $0.385{\pm}0.097{\mu}m$. There were significant positive correlations between anterior spherical aberration and age(r = 0.227, p<0.0001), and there were positive correlations between posterior aberration and age(r = 0.349, p<0.0001). It is considered that this data can be used as basic information for furture studies for improving the quality of vision of modern human and, through the analysis of the spherical aberration of cornea was to provide a better understanding of the optical part of the Korean's eye.

A computer program for computing the edge response function(ERF) from the optical transfer function( 0TF) was developed. The ERFs of un-aberrated optical system and aberrated optical system were studied by the use of that program. We calculated the ERFs of the optical systems with a single aberration and with a combined aberration. In sagittal case, the ERE of the optical system with defocus or spherical aberration was worse than that with coma. In tagential case, the ERF of the optical system with coma was worse than that with defocusing or spherical aberraion. Both the shape and the position of ERF were varied with coma, but only the position of ERF was varied with distortion, in tangential case.

Purpose : We investigated the change of spherical and comma aberrations after wearing aspheric soft contact lens (ASCL) in young myopes. Methods : Fifty young myopes ($23.15{\pm}1.70years$, spherical equivalent: $-2.90{\pm}1.75D$) were recruited and refractive errors were corrected using ASCL (Biotrue, Bausch+Lomb, USA). High order aberrations were measured in the 4 mm pupil size using the wavefront analyze and pupil sizes were measured with a pupillometer at the modes of scotopic condition (light off) at 3.5 m in the 100 lx illuminance condition. Results : Spherical aberrations and coma aberration of the 20s myopes were $0.026{\pm}0.031{\mu}m$ and $0.078{\pm}0.039{\mu}m$ respectively, and $0.019{\pm}0.026{\mu}m$ and $0.082{\pm}0.038{\mu}m$ after ASCL wear that spherical aberration was decreased and coma aberration was increased. However, spherical aberration was decreased in the 68% of the subject have positive spherical aberration, and increased in the 11% of the subject have negative spherical aberration. Coma aberration was increased in the 53% of the subject, did not change in the 19% of the subjects, and decreased in the 28% of the subject. Spherical aberration was not different with the refractive errors in low and moderate myopies, however, coma aberrations was higher in the higher myopes. Conclusion : In a scotopic condition without accommodation stimuli, spherical aberration is decreased after wearing ASCL, however in the subject have negative spherical aberration spherical aberration could be increased, and which is thought to be the influence of contact lens design and pupil size.

Blu-ray 디스크에서는 NA=0.85 의 높은 개구수를 채용함으로써 디스크 보호층의 두께 변동에 따른 구면수차 발생량이 매우 커지는 문제가 발생하게 된다. 따라서 디스크 두께 공차 $3{\mu}m$에서 Blu-ray 시스템의 수차 발생 허용수준을 초과한다. 그리고 Multi-layer 디스크의 경우 각 층의 간격이 $25{\mu}m$ 정도의 간격을 두고 배치되어 있어 기록층 사이에서 발생하는 구면수차의 보정이 필요하며, 종래의 기술은 보상범위가 $3{\mu}m$로 한정되어 사용이 불가능하며 또한 대물렌즈 조립공차가 엄격히 관리되어야 하는 문제점을 안고 있었다. 본 연구에서는 액정렌즈에 의한 구면수차 보정으로 이러한 문제점들을 해결하고자 하였다. 액정렌즈는 오목렌즈 액정소자와 볼록렌즈 액정소자로 구성되며 픽업 광학계 내에 조합하여 설계함으로써 Multi-layer 디스크의 두께 변동에 따라 발생하는 구면수차를 보정하고 대물렌즈 조립공차 문제를 해결할 수 있다.

We have obtained the analytic solutions of the four spherical mirror system free from the Seidel third order aberratios which are spherical aberration, coma, astigmatism, and distortion, Vignetting. Petzval field curvature, and optical properties according to the design parameters are numerically investigated and optimized.

Purpose: To investigate ocular higher order aberrations (HOA) and spherical aberration changes caused by an aspheric soft contact lens designed to reduce spherical aberration (SA) of the eye. Methods: Fifty subjects who have successfully experienced soft contact lenses were refitted with aspheric design (Soflens Daily Disposable: SDD, Bausch+Lomb) soft contact lens. Ocular higher order aberrations (HOA) and stand alone SA were measured and analyzed for a 4-mm pupil size using Wave-Scan Wavefront$^{TM}$ aberrometer (VISX, Santa Clara, CA, USA). High and low contrast log MAR visual acuity and contrast sensitivity function (CSF) were also measured under photopic and mesopic conditions (OPTEC 6500 Vision Tester$^{(R)}$). All measurements were conducted monocularly with an undilated pupil. Results: The RMS mean values for total HOA with SDD contact lenses were significantly lower than those at with unaided eyes (p<0.001) and a reduction for SA in the SDD was close to the baseline SA (zero ${\mu}m$) (p<0.001). For the SDD lens, there was a statistically significant correlation between the changes in the total HOA and the contact lens power (r=0.237, p=0.018) as well as between the changes in SA and the lens power (r=0.324, p=0.001). High contrast visual acuity (HCVA) and low contrast visual acuity (LCVA) with SDD lenses were $-0.063{\pm}0.062$ and $0.119{\pm}0.060$, respectively under photopic and $-0.003{\pm}0.063$ and $0.198{\pm}0.067$, respectively under mesopic condition. Contrast Sensitivity Function (CSF) with SDD lenses under both photopic and mesopic conditions was $3.095{\pm}0.068$ and $3.087{\pm}0.074$, respectively. Conclusions: The SDD contact lens designed to control SA reduced the total ocular HOA and SA of the eye, resulting in compensating for positive SA of the eyes. Thus, the optical benefits of the lens with SA control would be adopted for improving the quality of vision.

In this study, a program has been developed to enable a simulation of spherical aberration - originated from a spherical surface and an aspheric surface - via ray tracing and calculation of the degree of spherical aberration. This process has been verified for the variation of spherical aberration generated from ray tracing for aspheric surfaces such as an oval, a parabola, and a hyperbola. By comparing it with the spherical surface, the principle and necessity of the aspheric surface lens design have been understood. In addition, it allows confirming the accuracy of the simulation by developing a ray tracing program in relation to the mirror plane of a parabola.

A five mirror system with a reduction magnification(M=+1/5) is designed for DUV optical lithography. Initially, numerical solutions of all zero 3rd order aberrations and zero 5th order spherical aberration are obtained for the spherical mirror system. Next, by the optimization method, the aspherization is carried out to the two spherical mirrors to obtain a system that has as less residual aberrations, higher NA and improved MTF as possible. We have finally obtained the system of which NA is 0.45 and the resolution is about 500 cycles/mm at the 50% MTF value criterion and the depth of focus of $1.0{\mu}m$ for the nearly incoherent illumination$({\sigma}=1.0)$ and the wavelength of 0.248 m(KrF excimer laser line).
