This paper presents a new graphical method for selecting a pair of optical glasses to simultaneously achromatize and athermalize an imaging lens made of materials in contact. An athermal glass map that plots thermal glass constant versus inverse Abbe number is derived through analysis of optical glasses and plastic materials in visible light. By introducing the equivalent Abbe number and equivalent thermal glass constant, although it is a multi-lens system, we have a simple way to visually identify possible optical materials. Applying this method to design a phone camera lens equipped with quarter inch image sensor having 8-mega pixels, the thermal defocuses over $-20^{\circ}C$ to $+60^{\circ}C$ are reduced to be much less than the depth of focus of the system.

등가렌즈 변환법을 2매 접합렌즈계의 설계에 적용하여 achromatic doublet 과 aplanatic doublet을 설계하였다. 먼저 얇은 렌즈계에서 3차수차를 보정하고, 이를 등가렌즈 변환법을 사용하여 두꺼운 렌즈계로 변환하였다. Crown 유리 BaK-2와 flint 유리 SF-2를 사용하여 Fraunhofer type 과 Steinheil type의 접합렌즈계를 설계하였고, 얇은 2매 접합렌즈계에서는 두 가지 설계형태 모두에서 2개의 achromatic solution과 하나의 aplanatic solution이 존재하였다.

This paper introduces a new design for a Rotman lens that has been proposed to minimize its size and provide a suitable design for a compact beamforming system. The size reduction is realized by minimizing the length of the transition structures, which are positioned between the lens body and the connecting lines. The proposed structure is much shorter than a conventional transition structure, which is a tapered line in general. As a result, a 45% size reduction can be achieved by using the proposed transition structure, compared to a typical Rotman lens with linearly tapered lines. Therefore, the proposed Rotman lens will be suitable for compact beamforming systems.

지금까지 광학설계에서 사용되던 등가렌즈 변환은 렌즈가 공기중에 있다는 전제조건하에서 유도 되었기 때문에 접합렌즈계의 설계에서 부적절한 해를 얻는 경우가 있었다. 본 연구에서는 두꺼운 렌즈에서 등가렌즈로의 변환 및 이의 역변환과정을 어떠한 전제조건도 사용하지 않도록 일반화하였으며 일반화된 등가렌즈에 대한 3차수차식을 유도하였다. 일반화된 등가렌즈 변환을 2매 접합렌즈와 3매 접합렌즈의 변환에 적용시켜 본 결과, 일반화된 등가렌즈 변환이 두꺼운 렌즈의 3차수차를 잘 근사하고 있음을 확인하였다.

반도체 와이어 본딩(wire-bonding) 조립공정에 사용되는 검사용 다중배치 현미경 광학계를 설계하였다. 2배와 6배에 공통으로 사용되는 대물부를 통과한 광선은 광분할 프리즘으로 둘로 나뉘고 각각의 결상부에 의하여 물체의 주변부는 2배, 물체의 중심부는 6배로 결상하게 한다. 이 때 리드프레임의 와이어 구조 때문에 $\pm$3 mm의 높이차가 있어서 대물부에서 물체까지의 거리가 서로 다르다. 이러한 단차에 ,의해 물체거리가 바뀌더라도 동일한 결상 배율로 선명하게 관찰하기 위해 결상부를 기계 보정식 줌 렌즈와 같이 비선형 궤적으로 이동시켜야 한다. 이 궤적을 구하기 위해 가우스 괄호를 사용해 비선형 연립방정식을 세우고 풀었다. 또한 각 렌즈 군의 굴절능과 군간 간격을 구하는 군별 기초 설계는 등가렌즈에 대한 3차 수차 이론을 사용하였으며, 최종적으로 최적화 기법을 통하여 이러한 현미경 광학계를 얻었다.

This paper presents a design method for improving the low relative illumination and large distortion due to widening the field of a system. A tele-centric optical system in image space was suggested to increase the relative illumination. Through the analyses of the third-order aberrations affected by introducing aspherical surfaces, we have proposed a method to determine analytically what surface should be aspheric to correct each aberration effectively. By utilizing this method to design a wide field lens, a tele-centric wide field lens with f-number of F/2.0 was obtained. Even though the field angle is 120 degrees, it has a very low distortion less than -2% and high relative illumination more than 73.7%. In conclusion, this analytic method for selecting aspherical surfaces is expected to serve as a useful way to find design solutions.

We present a graphical method for determining a pair of optical materials and powers to design an achromatic and athermal lens system with corrected Petzval curvature. To graphically obtain the solutions, a three-dimensional (3D) glass chart is proposed. Even if a particular material combination is unavailable, we can select an element suitable for a specific lens and continuously change the element powers of an equivalent single lens for aberrations correction. Thus, we can iteratively identify the materials and powers on a 3D glass chart. By designing a fisheye lens using this method, an achromatic and athermal system with flat Petzval curvature is obtained, over the specified waveband and temperature ranges.

In this study, we proposed a method for surface profiling aspheric lens molds using a precision displacement sensor with a spatial scanning mechanism. The precision displacement sensor is based on the confocal principle using a broadband light source, providing a 10 nm resolution over a 0.3 mm measurable range. The precision of the sensor, depending on surface slope, was evaluated via Allan deviation analysis. We then developed an automatic surface profiling system by measuring the cross-sectional profile of a lens mold. The precision of the sensor at the flat surface was 10 nm at 10 ms averaging time, while 200 ms averaging time was needed for identical precision at the steepest slope at 25 deg. When we compared the measurement result of the lens mold to a commercial surface profiler, we found that the accuracy of the developed system was less than 90 nm (in terms of 3 sigmas of error) between the two results.

Based on liquid-lens technology and our previous findings on the optical model of the Chinese eye, the liquid lens is applied in the research of the crystalline-lens optical model. Theoretical models of three-layer liquid lenses are built with COMSOL software, and the effect of voltage on the shape of the interface between two liquids is analyzed. By polynomial fitting, different equations describing the interface shape are set up under different voltages. Finally, the optical system of the human eye with a three-layer liquid lens is built and analyzed with Zemax optical design software, and moreover the optical system models of emmetropia, myopia, and hyperopia are presented. This method to build a model of the human eye with a variable-focus liquid lens can provide a novel idea for more practical human-eye models for clinical regulation and control in the future.
