• Bar-Code Reader

• Surveying and Rangefinding

• Microscopy

• Astronomy

March 02002 Chuck DiMarzio, Northeastern University 10100-1-9

March 02002 Chuck DiMarzio, Northeastern University 10100-1-14

Motivation: Designing a New Microscope

• It’s Not Just About Resolution– Resolution Limited by Diffraction

• It’s About What Is Measured– Transmission, Reflection, Phase, Fluorescence,

Polarization, Non-Linear Properties

• And About How Data Are Processed– Registration, Deconvolution, Tomography, Parameter

Estimation

• And About Measuring Everything at Once

March 02002 Chuck DiMarzio, Northeastern University 10100-1-15

Contrast Features

• Material Properties– Wavespeed

– Attenuation

– Birefringence

– Non-Linearity

• Composition: What are the materials?

• Quantitative Measurements: How much of each?

• Structure: How they are arranged?– Boundaries– Shapes

March 02002 Chuck DiMarzio, Northeastern University 10100-1-16

A Couple of Rules

• Frequency and Wavelength– =c where is frequency, is wavelength– c is the speed of light.

• Photon Energy– E = h where h is Planck’s constant

• Materials Absorb and Emit Photons with Corresponding Changes in Energy

Basic Geometric Optics

• Reflection and Refraction• Imaging

– Real and Virtual– Image Location; Conjugate Planes– Magnification

• Transverse, Angular, Longitudinal

• Reflecting Optics (Not much in this course)• Refracting Optics

March 02002 Chuck DiMarzio, Northeastern University 10100-1-31

Imaging

• First, Assume a Point Object– Spherical Wavefronts and Radial Rays Define

Object Location– Find Image Location– Real or Virtual?

• Next Assume an Extended Object– Compute Magnification

• Transverse, Longitudinal, Angular

March 02002 Chuck DiMarzio, Northeastern University 10100-1-32

Where Are We Going?

• Geometric Optics– Reflection– Refraction

• The Thin Lens– Multiple Surfaces– (From Matrix Optics)

• Principal Planes• Effective Thin Lens

– Stops• Field• Aperture

– Aberrations

Ending with a word about ray tracing and optical design.

Meniscus lenses are more common in the IR because of the high indices of refraction, as we will see later.
