A 0.5-numerical-aperture (NA) refractive-reflective objective, composed of a low-NA refractive and a reflective focal reducer, is designed. A 0.25-NA Lister objective is used for the refractive. A two-spherical-mirror system, corrected for spherical aberration, coma, and astigmatism is used for the reflective focal reducer. In spite of high NA, the refractive-reflective objective has an 18-mm working distance and improved imaging performance, compared to the 0.25-NA Lister objective.

보호층 0.1mm두께의 20GB이상의 광디스크를 기록·재생하는 High Density Optical System에서는 Blue-violet laser와 NA(Numerical Aperture)0.85의 High NA의 대물렌즈를 사용한 Optical Pick Up이 필요로 된다. 종래의 대물렌즈는 glass 또는 plastic제의 2매 조합 대물렌즈가 많이 사용되어지고 있는데, 이는 두 렌즈간의 거리를 일정하게 유지시키기 위한 홀더 조립시의 공차가 엄격히 요구되며, 2매 조합 대물렌즈를 구동시키기 위한 actuator의 부피와 무게를 증가시킴으로서 구동감도를 감소시키는 단점이 있다.

We have evaluated the effects of experimental factors on transmitted electron beam intensities for quantitative analysis in electron tomography. For the correct application of Beer's law in electron tomography, the transmitted beam intensity should reflect the net effect of mass properties on beam path. So, the any other effects of the objective aperture and the specimen holder on beam path should be removed. The cut-off effects of objective aperture were examined using Quanti-foil holey carbon film and a transmission electron microscope operated at 120 kV. The transmitted beam intensities with $30{\mu}m$ objective aperture dropped about 16.7% compared to electron beam intensities without the objective aperture. Also, the additional losses of about 14.2% at high tilt angles were occurred by cut-off effects of the objective apertures. For the precise quantitative analysis in electron tomography, the effect of the objective aperture on transmitted electron beam intensities should be considered. It is desirable that 2-D tilt series images are obtained without the objective aperture for correct application of Bee's law.

By using finite ray-tracing and curve fitting, a numerical method to determine the non-paraxial pupil function of a high-NA objective is presented. MTF degradations caused by the non-paraxial diffraction effect are analyzed for on-axial imaging of a far-infrared objective and aberration-free ellipsoidal mirror system. The ellipsoidal mirror system has the same paraxial specifications as the far-infrared objective.

Purpose: This study relates to the development of the 3X scope, whose objective part is configured with a doublet + a meniscus lens. Methods: By the initial condition of the objective part having a configuration of a doublet + a singlet, we could optimize the optical system of scope in order to minimize the finite ray aberrations of the objective part and the whole optical system of scope, and so we could develope a new type 3X scope. Results: On the condition of the objective part having a configuration of a doublet + a singlet, when the optical system of scope was optimized in order to minimize the finite ray aberrations, we could find that the singlet became the meniscus type lens having the concave shape to the direction of the doublet, and the longer the distance between the doublet and the meniscus lens is, the more the finite ray aberrations are minimized. Conclusions: In this study, we could develope a new type 3X scope of which finite ray aberrations can be reduced to 1/14 than the existing scope by adopting the objective part of the 3X scope having a configuration of three lenses composed of a doublet + a singlet. We could confirm that this reduction of aberrations can be a means to increase the effective aperture than the existing scope and to shorten the length of the optical system.

The design method that the structure of double actuators of read-only or read-writable DVD optical pick-up of high density can be compact into the structure of one actuator, is proposed. The designed actuator has the structure of the shaft sliding type in which the moving part can be rotated about the shaft accord to a used optical disc and an objective lens can be switched, and is suspended with magnetic spring. In this actuator, Coulomb's friction is used as damping force and the moving part is designed by finite element method so that the second natural vibration mode can not occur within the servo band. The mock-up of the actuator designed in this paper is made, and its dynamic characteristics is measured and estimated.

Coefficient of spherical aberration of the objective lens in the KBSI-HVEM was evaluated by diffractogram method. Instrumental resolution was also discussed with this method. In order to improve the accuracy, digital processing and graphical curve fitting for intensity profile of diffractogram were employed. Experimental concerns where the optimal procedure of the measurement con be accomplished for this study were discussed. The spherical aberration coefficient $(C_s)$ was estimated to be $2.628{\pm}0.04\;mm$ from this study, which was almost coincident with the value of the manufacture's suggestion $(C_s=2.65\;mm)$.

Aspheric pick-up lenses are increasingly used in consumer products such as computer and multimedia, as their mass production has become possible owing to the injection molding process. However still much work needs to be done for more effective manufacture of aspheric lenses, one area of which is the in-line inspection of produced lenses. In this paper, we present a lateral-shearing interferometer that has specially been designed to have a high immunity to external vibration and atmospheric disturbance. The interferometer comprises four prisms. They are directly attached to each other using an immersion oil so that relative sliding motions between the prisms are allowed. Their relative displacement can readily generate necessary lateral-shearing and phase-shifting to determine the wavefront of the beam collimated by the lens under inspection. A special phase-measuring algorithm of arbitrary-bucket is adopted to compensate the phase-shifting error caused by the thickness reduction in the immersion oil. Zernike polynomial fitting has done for determinating quantitative aberration of aspheric pick-up lenses. The interferometer built in this work is robust to external mechanical vibration and atmospheric disturbance so that experimental results show that it has a repeatability of less than λ/100.

A high performance afocal zoom telescope has been designed to operate in the 7.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ to 10.3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ waveband for thermal imaging system. This IR zoom telescope is characterized by using of two movable optical element groups, variator and compensator, with mechanically compensated method and the positioning of these groups is controlled by means of a computerized program. The optical performance over the entire 4:1 zoom range and $\pm$2.31~$\pm$9.36 degrees field of view is near diffraction limit while maintaining a constant F-number. The all refracting surfaces of this system except only one aspheric surface are spherical curvature and the material for the optical elements is selected Ge and ZnSe which is used for correction of chromatic aberration.
