This book computes the first- and second-order derivative matrices of skew ray and optical path length, while also providing an important mathematical tool for automatic optical design. This book consists of three parts. Part One reviews the basic theories of skew-ray tracing, paraxial optics and primary aberrations – essential reading that lays the foundation for the modeling work presented in the rest of this book. Part Two derives the Jacobian matrices of a ray and its optical path length. Although this issue is also addressed in other publications, they generally fail to consider all of the variables of a non-axially ... Read more

Reviews for Advanced Geometrical Optics
“Professor Lin has greatly expanded the breadth and scope of using matrix representation in geometrical optics. … Advanced Geometrical Optics could be used in teaching graduate and advanced-undergraduate students and is enthusiastically recommended for those interested in geometrical optics, optical design, and optimization.” (R. Barry Johnson, Contemporary Physics, Vol. 58 (3), April, 2017) “This book is concerned with the ... Read more
