12 2 Cardinal Elements in Zemax Cardinal elements of a selected index range (lens or group)

13 Cardinal Points of a Lens Real lenses: The surface with the principal points as apparent ray bending points is a curved shell The ideal principal plane exists only in the paraxial approximation P' s' P'

14 4 Limitation of Principal Surface Definition The principal planes in paraxial optics are defined as the locations of the apparent ray bending of a lens of system In the case of a system with corrected sine conditions, these surfaces are spheres Sine condition and pupil spheres are also limited for off-axis points near to the optical axis For object points far from the axis, the apparent locations are complicated surfaces, which may consist of two branches

15 5 Limitation of Principal Surface Definition A r4eal microscopic lens has a nearly perfect spherical shape of the principal surface

Paraxial Approximation Paraxiality is given for small angles relative to the optical axis for all rays Large numerical aperture angle u violates

26 Paraxial Approximation Paraxiality is given for small angles relative to the optical axis for all rays Large numerical aperture angle u violates the paraxiality, spherical aberration occurs Large field angles w violates the paraxiality, coma, astigmatism, distortion, field curvature occurs

27 Paraxial approximation Paraxial approximation: ni n' i' Small angles of rays at every surface Small incidence angles allows for a linearization of the law of refraction All optical imaging conditions become linear (Gaussian optics), calculation with ABCD matrix calculus is possible No aberrations occur in optical systems There are no truncation effects due to transverse sized components Serves as a reference for ideal system conditions Is the fundament for many system properties (focal length, principal plane, magnification,...) The sag of optical surfaces (difference in z between vertex plane and real surface intersection point) can be neglected i x 2 All waves are plane of spherical (parabolic) R E( x) E0 e The phase factor of spherical waves is quadratic
