In order to produce an instrument or sensor design in the face of demanding environmental constraints of a spaceborne system, an integrated approach to sensor design has been developed that incorporates design tools for: opticaldesign, mechanical design, structural, stray light and thermal analysis. This integrated approach can be extended to the entire payload design and its increased constraints.

Hybrid optics offer a valuable aberration correction tool for the lensdesigner. However, careful consideration must be given to the calculation of the optical performance during the design process, and to the practical implementation of the elements if the potential benefits are to be realised in practice. optical performance can be accurately assessed by tracing multiple diffraction orders. It may be particularly important to utilise such a technique if, for example, the image-forming bundles sample a small number of diffractive zones. This situation is examined in detail.

These days, nothing lasts very long, and things often change for the better, but there are sure things in our community, such as this annual event, which has been going on for 25 years. The first edition in 2000 of the currentdevelopments in lensdesign and optical Systems engineeringconference took place during International Symposium on optical science and technology, 30 July - 4 August 2000 in San Diego. Over 45 oral presentations and ten posters were presented. The chairs were Robert E. Fischer, Warren J. Smith, R. Barry Johnson, and William H. Swantner. The proceeding was numbered 4093 and 24 years later the number is 12666 (2023). This paper looks back on the great moments of our conference, its speakers, the subjects that have come and gone, and those that have remained.

Over the years much time has been dedicated to improving lens optimisation routines. Most of the work has been upon the damped least squares (DLS) method. In this paper a number of theoretical and practical enhancements are presented. Some are new, others have already been published but never transposed into commercial software. These enhancements combine to allow the user to make more informed choices at every stage of an optimisation, and have now been incorporated into the widely used Winlens software package.

We discuss the requirements on design and production regarding geometric and chromatic aberrations for objectives used in 4Pi confocal microscopy. We show that even the selection of a category 1/1 glass will not automatically assure that these requirements are met. due to residual variations in the Abbe number nu within the manufacturers tolerances. Consequently, the opticaldesign has to take into consideration the possibility of balancing chromatic aberrations by varying selected air spacings in the final assembly of each individual objective. We also demonstrate. that for analyzing the influence of aberrations on the intensity distribution along the optical axis. a scalar diffraction theory is still applicable and very useful.

Generally, a spectrometer uses a diffraction grating to spread the spectral components of a light incident on the diffraction grating on a one-dimensional detector. The detector is composed of pixels linearly distributed along a line. However, the diffracted light is not spread linearly on the detector which means that the Wavelength on pixel I is not linearly correlated with the wavelength on pixel 2. The resolution is therefore not constant for all the spectral range of the spectrometer. To know which pixel corresponds to which wavelength, a nonlinear calibration process must be applied to get a linear relation between the diffracted light position and the wavelength of this light. The new spectrometer that we present uses a special lens configuration name F-sin(theta) lens to provide a linear relation in the image plane between the pixel position and the wavelength of the light. The f-sin(theta) characteristic is defined as the difference in percent between the design position of the wavelength in the image plane and its ideal position, if the lens is perfect. The characteristic of the lens used in the spectrometer is better than 0.1%. The concept can also be used for WDM and DWDM applications.
