BASIC PARAMETERS OF LENS DESIGN

Abstract

In this study, the basics of optical system design are presented. It contains a series of formulations ordered by subject areas or topics representing typical lens design tasks and optical system design tasks. Different aspects are covered, such as the definition of starting systems and the creation, evaluation, and optimization of lenses and systems. The formulas of the most critical lens design equations are given in detail in the content of the study. It also provides an overview of basic mathematical models for calculating simple optical components such as single lenses, systems, and achromatic pairs. Such components represent the foundation of any optical system. The literature study on this study determined that studies on lens design in national publications are limited. The study differs in that it clearly articulates the fundamentals of lens design. It is thought that this study will contribute to the literature.
