Optical Design using Fresnel Lenses
The Fresnel lens can be used in a wide variety of applications. The basic principles of the Fresnel lens are review ed and some practical examples are des cribed. There are definite advantages and tradeoffs that should be considered when deciding if a Fresnel lens is the appropri ate component to use in a design. Some basic optimization rules are presented which may facilitate a first order ...
متن کاملExamples of Early Nonconventional Technical Information Systems
Chemists have a long-standing appreciation for the value of recorded information. Many of the early efforts to improve information-processing techniques were centered on chemical information problems. The preeminence of Chemical Abstracts as a secondary publication service was well established, but the control and effective use of other information resources were objects of much effort and inte...
متن کاملCompact optical design solutions using focus tunable lenses
Several approaches have been demonstrated to build focus tunable lenses. The additional degree of freedom enables the design of elegant, compact optical systems, typically with less mechanics. We present a new range of electrically and mechanically focus tunable lenses of different sizes and tuning ranges and discuss their characteristics. We show how tunable lenses can be used to improve optic...
متن کاملBright Lenses and Optical Depth
In gravitational lensing, the concept of optical depth assumes the lens is dark. Several microlensing detections have now been made where the lens may be bright. Relations are developed between apparent and absolute optical depth in the regime of the apparent and absolute brightness of the lens. An apparent optical depth through bright lenses is always less than the true, absolute optical depth...
متن کاملOptical Lenses for Atomic Beams
Abstract Superpositions of paraxial laser beam modes to generate atom-optical lenses based on the optical dipole force are investigated theoretically. Thin, wide, parabolic, cylindrical and circular atom lenses with numerical apertures much greater than those reported in the literature to date can be synthesized. This superposition approach promises to make high quality atom beam imaging and na...
