Aldis Theorem

Advantage of Aldis theorem: contain all orders

Larger differences for surfaces/cases with higher order contributions

Usually, the reference is the paraxial ray, therefore distortion is taken into account

A known formulation is available for aspherical surfaces in centered systems

A specialized equation must be used for the case of image in infinity

More general 3D geometries are not supported

More general formulations are possible (Brewer)

Disadvantage of Aldis theorem: only for one ray

Aberration expansion: perturbation theory

Linear independent contributions only in lowest correction order: Surface contributions of Seidel additive

Higher order aberrations (5th order,...): nonlinear superposition - 3rd oder generates different ray heights and angles at next surfaces

- induces aberration of 5th order

- together with intrinsic surface contribution: complete error

Separation of intrinsic and induced aberrations: refraction at every surface in the system

Mathematical formulation:

1. incoming aberrations form

previous surface

2. transfer into exit pupil

surface j

3. complete/total aberration

4. subtraction total/intrinsic:

induced aberrations

Interpretation: Induced aberration is generated by pupil distortion together with incoming perturbed

3rd order aberration

Similar effects obtained for higher orders

Usually induced aberrations are larger than intrinsic one

Example Gabor telescope - a lens pre-corrects a spherical mirror to obtain vanishing spherical aberration

- due to the strong ray deviation at the plate, the ray heights at the mirror changes

significantly

- as a result, the mirror has induced

chromatical aberration, also the

intrinsic part is zero by definition

Polarization

If polarization effects have influence on the performance of a system, the pure

geometrical aberration model is no longer sufficient

The main reasons for polarization effects in optical systems are

1. Coatings

2. stress induced birefringence

3. intrinsic birefringend in crystaline materials

4. mixing of field component in high-NA systems without x-y-decoupling

Polarization

The understanding of the intensity distribution of the point spread function and

image formation needs the consideration of the physical field E

In the most general case, in the exit pupil we have a field with 3 orthogonal components,

that can not interfere

In the coherent case, the intensity

in the image plane is the sum of

the 3 intensity contributions

In the case of small numerical

apertures, only 2 transverse field

components must be considered

To determine polarization effects

in the image, first the propagation

of the polarization through the

system must be calculated

System Model

The field must be decomposed in components

1. in the object

2. in the entrance pupil

3. at every surface in the system

4. in the exit pupil

The transfer is established by coordinate transforms and Jones matrices

Any change of the polarization state from the object to the image space can be considered

as an aberrtion of polarization

The changes of the field can be decomposed in components

The vectoirial Zernikes can be used to describe these changes

From a practical point of view, phase and amplitude changes should be distinguished

Therefore usually the detailed assessment is divided into

1. retardance

2. diattenuation

Physically this corresponds to the phase and the size of the complex eigenvalues of

the system Jones matrix

Understanding optical systems is only possible with aberration theory

Correction of systems is efficient with detailed analysis of aberrations and

the methods to prevent or compensate them after a proper classification

Especially the decomposition of the total aberrations into the surface contributions helps

for analyzing and improving systems

Allows qualified performance assessment

But:

1. the classical aberration theory is restricted to the geometrical picture

2. the classical aberrations theory mostly assumes circular symmetry

3. complete general geometries are complicate to implement,

the single numbers becomes matrices and are hard to interprete

4. the digital image processing approaches of today reduce the necessity of perfectly

corrected analogue systems

4. the application to real human image perception is still complicated
