TitleModern Optical CAD Technique(CODE V and Its Applicaion)
Class Hours/Week:  3-1                  Credit: 2                  Category: Specialty
Prerequisites:Optical Engineering
Test and Grading Criteria 
open-book exam (70%)+usually works(30%)
Course objectives and basic requirements:
This course will provide students with a fundamental understanding of optical design concepts as applied to lens design.Emphasis will be on practical understanding of optical design and the use of an optical design computer program (codeV) to design practical optical system
The primary objective of this course is to enable an optical engineering student to:
1. Design lenses for a particular application.
2. Develop insight to determine the necessary image quality for an application as well as the limitations
3. Develop the knowledge to evaluate lens designs via various figures of merit, i.e., MTF, Strehl ratio.
4. Provide an understanding of classical lens designs, characteristics/limitations, certain patents.
Course introduction: 
The outline of this curriculum includes Agenda Introduction, CODE V Basics, Design Basics, QU ray trace (MatLab realization), Transverse Ray Aberration(such as Defocus, Tilt, Chromatic Aberration, Lateral Chromatic Aberration, Transverse ray aberration, Wave Front Expansion, Spherical Aberration, Field curvature, Astigmatism, Coma, Seidel coefficients, Aberration control, Combination of aberrations, Ray fans analysis, Seidel/Coefficients and rms wavefront analysis), Conic/Aspheric Surface, Image evaluation 1(MatLab realization)(including Spot diagrams and MTF/PSF), Image evaluation 2(MatLab realization, including MTF with aberration, Strehl ratio and Alaising), Optimization(MatLab realization), Optical Coordinate Transform and Code V
