In this paper, an aberration free aspherical lens is designed and machined by new design method and the spherical aberration measuring system is developed. It confirmed the propriety of new design method by measuring optical characteristics of machined lens with the new measuring system. The system could measure a spherical aberration quantitatively by using CCD camera, laser, collimator and so on.

A generalized structural design equation can be used to simplify and systematize a telecentric lens system composed of multiple lenses, as a creative design method of the authors. Through this structural equation, we have investigated the feasibility and design methodology of a telecentric lens equipped with a conventional smartphone camera for machine vision. As a result, we could verify and present a useful, generalized structural equation termed the $f{\theta}$ formula, being able to divide and combine the whole telecentric lens system into two modularized lens groups.

A aspheric lens is one a key point optical element in the optical industry. The feature of a aspheric lens is not to have the spherical aberration. A aspheric lens is also essential element for high-precision and light-weight in the optical machine. Generally it have been used in a tailor progression an aspheric lens modelling much. In this study we applied a lay back-tracer using a index of refraction to draw a creative aspheric lens. And we executed a comparison experiment for refraction situation of shape and straightness experiment to inspect the drawn aspheric lens in this study

Recently an optical diffusion of LED lamps has been studied actively. In this paper, the second lens applied to a cover of the LED lamp was analytically designed to having a wide angle distribution of light without diffuser characteristic by dispersing agent. In this process, We found a major factors that can help improve the performance of the lens. It is the refractive power of the lens, the Mie particle density of phosphor, and the arrangement of the LED. Through the final simulation, we can see the LED lamp is possible to get wide angle light distribution by proper source modeling and second lens designing. Also, we can see this simulated results are entirely consistent with measured data for light distribution. In this research, we present the shape of the second lens with wide angle distribution and derive the important factors for the second lens design.

Aspherical lens design method named ray reverse tracing method is introduced. Differently from the traditional design method, the ray reverse tracing method traces the shape and location of a real object by use of its virtual image. From the result, it was convinced that spherical aberration free aspherical lens could be designed by use of the ray reverse tracing method. Furthermore, it could reduce the degree of dependence of optical characteristics on designer's ability, because deformation terms and optimization can be eliminated, which has been performed in conventional lens design process.

We try to find the generalized structural equation that gives a perspective understanding for telecentric lenses through paraxial optical algebraic equations and preconditions from a highly experienced design sense. The equation is named the $f{\theta}$ formula and this formula is applied to single lenses, double Gauss lenses, Cooke triplet lenses and the compound lens composed of a Cooke triplet lens and a double Gauss lens step by step. And this formula is also applied to single fly-eye lenses plus a telecentric lens and double fly-eye lenses plus a telecentric lens in sequence. As a result, we can confirm that this $f{\theta}$ formula leads to intuitive optical design with a structural understanding for telecentric lens systems.

We derived analytic formulae for the correction of spherical aberration, coma, and axial color of a two-components lens system consisted of a cemented doublet and a singlet by using the thin lens approximation. The correction formulae were applied to design a telephoto lens system. We examined two kinds of glass combinations in the design, one was crown-flint-crown combination and the other was flint-crown-flint combination. We found two kinds of achromatic aplanat solutions in the crown-flint-crown combination. For the case of flint-crown-flint combination, there were also two kinds of solutions, but their configurations are not useful in practice.

This paper shows the best selection and combination of glass in lens design, to correct a chromatic aberration using achromatic and apochromatic conditions. Using this research result, we have designed a telecentric lens for machine vision in the full range of visible light. We obtain good optical quality in the form of a quite small RMS wavefront error of $0.057{\lambda}$ in the super-broadband wavelength range 380 nm -780 nm. This result is better than that for a common telecentric lens in the visible wavelength range 486.1-656.2 nm.

300mm F/4.0 telephotolens with diffractive hybrid lens was designed, and its optical performance was tested and compared with a traditional lens system. DOE(Diffractive Optical Element) reconstructs wavefronts using wave phenomena of light to focus the incident light onto the focal point and has negative Abbe number while a traditional lens uses geometrical phenomena of light and has positive Abbe number. Therefore, a diffractive hybrid lens containing both refractive and diffractive elements can remarkably correct chromatic aberration and spherical aberration of an optical system. We investigated and analyzed the optical properties of a diffractive hybrid lens for the visible spectrum, and we used a difractive hybrid lens to design and evaluate a 300mm F/4.0 telephotolens without the special LD(Low Dispersive) glass lens which is costly and difficult to manufacture. Most traditional telephotolenses use the special LD glass for chromatic aberration correcton. Optical performance tests such as resolution and characteristics of aberration of both lens systems using a diffractive hybrid lens and traditional lens were performed.
