The author proposes a new noise power-spectrum estimation method for mark-dimension fluctuation in optical disks. Diffraction by marks was modeled using Fraunhofer diffraction theory, and mark-dimension fluctuations were taken into account through statistical averaging. The calculated and experimental results agreed well. Fluctuations in the mark edge position mainly contributed to noise.

The main parts of the imaging spectrometer for observing ocean color (OCM system) are: the scan subsystem, the pre-position telescope, the dispersion element, and the spectrometer which should be determined according to the science requirements of ocean color observation and the correspondent specifications of the opticaldesign. The authors analyzed the optical systems of the MODIS-T proposed by NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center and found some problems in them. Based on this the authors designed a reflection-refraction hybrid optical system by autocollimation grating. The results are better than the improved MODIS-T opticaldesign in some points--the minimal optical MTF value of the design at the Niquist frequency is better than 0.96, the construction is much more compact.

The theory of nondiffracting beam propagation and experimental evidence for nearly-nondiffractive Bessel beam propagation are reviewed. The experimental results are reinterpreted using simple optics formulas, which show that the observed propagation distances are characteristic of the optical systems used to generate the beams and do not depend upon the initial beam profiles. A set of simple experiments are described which support this interpretation. It is concluded that nondiffracting Bessel beam propagation has not yet been experimentally demonstrated.

With many optical systems the method that is used to align the optical system needs to be an integral portion of the system design and not an afterthought. Once all the pieces are in fabrication it may be too late to implement a cost-effective alignment procedure for both prototype and production designs. This is especially true with catadioptric systems where the mirror alignment tends to be very critical as far as system performance is concerned. This paper describes the design and use of an aspheric null mirror for the alignment of a two mirror subsystem to a lens cell. The optical system to be aligned was a six-in. EFL, F/2 system working in the 3-5 micrometers bandpass. It consisted of two aspheric mirrors, one aspheric lens, and two spherical lenses.

A technique which automatically adjusts the optical axis of a CCD image sensor with the lens for a linear CCD image scanner is described. The error of the alignment is measured to the magnitude and pulse-width of the detected signal from the linear CCD image sensor, calculating the value of error by computer and driving the stepping motor to achieve the automatic adjustment.

The relationship between aberration and the aberration coefficient is the basic formulation in the field of aberration theory. The Seidel's formulations can only be used in the case of low performance (small aperture and small field), so that a set of correct relations between spherical aberration (SA) and spherical aberration coefficient (SAC) must be derived for the application of large aperture and small viewing field.

A new approach to the fringe formation in the interference of light incident on a plane parallel plate is introduced. It is shown that for a particular angle of incidence, which depends only on the refractive index, the interfringes are minimum. It is proved that in an angular interval of few arc degrees around this particular incident angle the interfringes are equal to a high accuracy. It is shown that this feature can be exploited to produce an interference grating with an arbitrary transparent-to-opaque groove ratio, and to measure the wavelength of light and the fine structures of a spectrum with a precision considerably higher than can be obtained in the other similar interferometric methods.

The authors developed a new advanced laser scanning range finder. The width gauge consists of a pair of these range finders. Conventional gauges cannot measure the effective width of complexly shaped plate edges. However, the gauge measures both side profiles of a plate and calculates the effective width with an accuracy of +/- 1.5 mm. This new type of width gauge has been developed and tested at the plate rolling mill at Kashima Steel Works of Sumitomo Metal Industries Ltd.

Software is under development at Teledyne Brown engineering to represent a lens configuration as a y-ybar or Delano diagram. The program determines third-order Seidel and chromatic aberrations for each configuration. It performs a global search through all valid permutations of configuration space and determines, to within a step increment of the space, the configuration with smallest third-order aberrations. The program was developed to generate first-order optical layouts which promised to reach global minima during subsequent conventional optimization. Other operations allowed by the program are: add or delete surfaces, couple surfaces (for Mangin mirrors), shift the stop position, and display first-order properties and the optical layout (surface radii and thicknesses) for subsequent entry into a conventional lens-design program with automatic optimization. Algorithms for performing some of the key functions, not covered by previous authors, are discussed in this paper.
