EELE 582 — Optical Design: 3 Credits (3 Lec)
() Spring alternating, odd years. Optical design using geometric optics and computer ray-tracing software. Introduces ray and wave front aberrations, control of aberrations in optical systems, designing for system requirements, and analytic tools including the modulation transfer function for describing the imaging and beam-conditioning properties of typical optical systems, including lenses, mirrors, cameras, and telescopes
