Radiometric vs Photometric Units

• Photometric quantities are

• spectrally weighted by the sensitivity of the human eye 𝑉(𝜆)

• multiplied by maximum spectral luminous efficacy of radiation for

photopic vision 𝐾𝑚

• For a given spectral flux 𝜑 𝜆 :

• Conversion between radiometric and photometric units requires knowledge

about the spectrum!

• Two light sources with the same radiant flux may have totally different

luminous flux values depending on their spectrum.

Irradiance / Exitance

Irradiance: power density on a surface

Conventional notation: „intensity“

Unit: W/m2

Integration over all incident directions

Only the projection of a collimated beam

perpendicular to the surface is effective

Exitance is defined the same way, but with the radiation leaving the surface element

Radiation Transfer

Basic task of radiation transfer problems:

integration of the differential flux transfer law

Two classes of problems:

1. Constant radiance, the integration is a purely geometrical task

2. Arbitrary radiance, a density function has to be integrated over the geometrical light tube

Special cases:

Simple geometries, mostly highly symmetric, analytical formulas

General cases: numerical solutions

- Integration of the geometry by raytracing

- Considering physical-optical effects in the raytracing:

1. absorption

2. reflection

3. scattering

Non-Sequential Raytrace

Conventional raytrace:

- the sequence of surface hits of a ray is pre-given and is defined by the index vector

- simple and fast programming of the surface-loop of the raytrace

Non-sequential raytrace:

- the sequence of surface hits is not fixed

- every ray gets ist individual path

- the logic of the raytrace algorithm determines the next surface hit at run-time

- surface with several new directions of the ray are allowed:

1. partial reflection, especially Fresnel-formulas

2. statistical scattering surfaces

3. diffraction with several grating orders or ranges of deviation angles

Many generalizations possible:

several light sources, segmented surfaces, absorption, …

Applications:

1. illumination modelling

2. statistical components (scatter plates)

3. straylight calculation

Thick asphere:

- point and slope coupled by

equation

Fresnel lens:

- wrapped height h

- error due to wrong ray bending

location

- smallest size of period at point

of largest slope (mostly edge)

Diffractive element:

- smallest lateral period in range

of wavelength g(r)

- grating equation/diffraction

dominates direction of light

propagation

Simple option: Sequential Mode

• relative illumination / vignetting

• relative irradiance distribution for simple sources (uniform or Lambertian)

Advanced possibility: Mixed Mode

• non-sequential component

• embedded into sequential optical systems

• examples: lightguide, arrays together with focussing optics, beam guiding, roof

prisms

General illumination calculation: Pure Non-Sequential Mode

• non-sequential raytrace with a completely different philosophy of handling

• object oriented handling: definition of source, components and detectors

Partly non-sequential raytrace:

Choice of surface type ‚Non-Sequential Component‘

Surface defines entrance port into the non-sequential group

Specification of Exit Port defines position of following sequential surface

Non-sequential component editor with many control parameters is used to describe the

element:

type of component

reference object

material

geometrical parameters

Sources and Detectors can be placed inside the non-sequential group, but:

Non-sequential rays generated by sources inside the group will not leave the non-

sequential group.

Detectors do not record sequential rays entering the non-sequential group.

Complete non-sequential raytrace

Switch into a different mode in Setup Mode Non-Sequential

Defining the system in the non-sequential editor, includes

1. sources

2. light guiding components

3. detectors

Various help function are available to

constitute the system

It is a object (component) oriented philosophy in

contrast to the surface-oriented sequential approach

Raytrace is slow compared to sequential algorithm has to determine which

object has the next intersection with the ray

Many types of components and options are available

For every component, several

parameters can be fixed:

- drawing options

- coating, scatter surface

- diffraction

- ray splitting

- ...

parameters

Rays can be accumulated over multiple ray trace runs
