4 Sine Condition § Lagrange invariante for paraxial angles U, U‘ § sin-condition: extension for finite aperture angle u § Corresponds to energy conservation in the system § Constant magnification for alle aperture zones § Pupil shape for finite aperture is a sphere § Definition of violation of the sine condition: OSC (offense against sine condition) § OSC = 0 means correction of sagittal coma (aplanatic system)
5 Optical Sine Condition § Condition for finite angles § Condition for object at infinity § Condition for afocal system § In the formulation the sagittal magnification is used
6 Abbe Sine Condition § If for example a small field area and a widespread ray bundle is considered, a perfect imaging is possible § The eikonal with the expression can be written for d. L=0 as § In the special case of an angle 90°we get with cos(q)=sin(u) the Abbe sine condition with the lateral magnification
7 Derivation of the Sine Condition § From geometry P 0 CQ, Mo'QC § Refraction § Division and substitution
8 Pupil Sphere § Pupil sphere: Relation between pupil height and aperture angle according to sine condition § Can only be fulfilled by spherical shaped pupil surface
9 Principal Sphere and Aplanatism § If a point A is imaged aplanatic: it is impossible, that a second point B is also aplanatic with the principal sphere construction
10 Principal Sphere § The principal sphere can only image on axis points § Off axis points gives wrong image location § Conclusion: Aplanatism is only locally valid (axial and lateral)
11 Vectorial Sine Condition § General vectorial sine condition: spatial frequencies / direction cosines are linear related from entrance to exit pupil § Generalization can be applied for anamorphic systems § General mapping between pupil surfaces gives the condition
12 Transfer of Energy in Optical Systems § Conservation of energy § Invariant local differential flux § Assumption: no absorption § Delivers the sine condition
13 Pupil Sphere § Sine condition fulfilled: linear scaling from entrance to exit pupil § Pupil surface must be sperical § The pupil height scales with the sine of the angle
14 Pupil Distortion § Sine condition fulfilled: linear scaling from entrance to exit pupil § Offence against the sine condition (OSC): Exit pupil grid is distorted § Consequences: 1. Photometric effect causes apodization 2. Wave aberration could be calculated wrong 3. Spatial filtering on warped grid
15 Pupil Distortion § Afocal system: Lagrange invariant (classical Lagrange invariant for pupil imaging) § Magnification § Sine condition § Fulfillment of the sine condition: linear scaling of entrance to exit pupil
16 Sine Condition in Microscopic Objective Lens § Typical high-NA system § Virtual pupil located inside § Typical grid distortion
17 OSC and Apodization § Photometric effect of pupil distortion: illumination changes at pupil boundary § Effect induces apodization § Sign of distortion determines the effect: outer zone of pupil brighter / darker § Additional effect: absolute diameter of pupil changes
18 Pupil Aberration § Interlinked imaging of field and pupil § Distortion of object imaging corresponds to spherical aberration of the pupil imaging § Corrected spherical pupil aberration: tangent condition
19 Pupil Aberrations § Pupil imaging: interchange of marginal and chief ray § Spherical aberration and coma of pupil imaging: - variable exit pupil position - distortion of the image § Field and pupil aberrations connected
20 Pupil Aberrations § Wave aberration of pupil imaging § Wave aberrations of field and pupil imaging related L: Lagrange invariant Pupil imaging Spherical aberration Coma Field imaging Piston Astigmatism Distortion Field curvature Distortion Coma Piston Spherical aberration Relation
21 Pupil Aberrations § Transverse aberrations Pupil imaging Effect Grid change Spherical Kidney bean lateral shift aberration Pupil walking Coma Slyusarev Vignetting Astigmatism Field curvature Quadratic distortion I Distortion Apodization Loss of telecentricity Cubic (classical) distortion Piston Spherical no effect Relation Shape of new grid Magnification and anamorphism Quadratic distortion II
22 Pupil Imaging § Assumed ideal imaging of field planes, OO' § Fermat principle for constant OPD in case of pupil imaging: - axis point SS' as reference - same OPD only valid for BB' - point AA' not imaged perfect - rim of the stop only imaged ideal, if pupil spherical
23 Pupil Imaging
24 Pupil Imaging § General case: system stop is imaged in object and image domain § Distorted imaging in entrance and exit pupil § Practical consequences for intensity, stop boundary and wave optical calculations Equidistant sampling in: Stop correct interpreted Lambert source correct sampled Stop boundary correct without aiming PSF needs no apodization W calculation needs on a regular grid PSF calculation with FFT possible Entrance Stop pupil Y N N N Exit pupil N N Y Y
25 Pupil Aberrations § Spherical aberration of the chief ray / pupil imaging § Exit pupil location depends on the field height
26 Pupil Aberration § Eyepiece with pupil aberration § Illumination for decentered pupil : dark zones due to vignetting
27 Pupil-Surface § High numerical aperture microscopic lens § Numerical calculated pupil surface by starting narrow parallel ray bundes in the object plane § Strongly curved surface is obtained
28 Pupil Aberrations § Telecentric system: Pupil aberrations means loss of telecentricity § Special extreme case of pupil aberrations: walk offset of pupil in Fisheye lenses
29 Sine Condition and Aplanatism § Geometry same for l' ratio § Ratio § With magnification § Sine condition fulfilled for aplanatism
30 Sine Condition and Coma § Seidel contribution spherical aberration § Seidel contribution coma for arbitrary stop location Interpretation: 1. term: aplanatism 2. term: thickness dependend 3. term: residual spherical aberration § If spherical corrected and thin lenses: Coma corrected if aplanatism fulfilled
Wavefront and Spot for Coma § Coma Seidel trans verse aberrations § Wavefront for coma with § Relationship § Here
Wavefront and Spot for Coma § Schematic geometry: Notice the doubled revolution in the image plane due to combined effect of azimuthal rotation and tilt of wavefront
Tangential and Sagittal Coma § 2 terms of tangential transverse aberration: - Sagittal coma depends on xp, describes the asymmetry - Tangential coma depends on yp, corresponds to spherical aberration under skew conditions larger by a factor of 3 § Only asymmetry removed with sine condition: sagittal coma vanishes
34 Sine Condition and Coma § Linear coma (all orders) § Transverse aberrations § Sagittal coma yp = 0, xp = a § Sine condition fulfilled: linear sagittal coma vanishes § If in addition spherical aberration is corrected (aplanatic): also tangential coma vanishes
35 Skew Spherical aberration § Decomposition of coma: 1. part symmetrical around chief ray: skew spherical aberration 2. asymmetrical part: tangential coma § Skew spherical aberration: - higher order aberration - caustic symmetric around chief ray
36 Aplanatic and Perfect Imaging § Perfect imaging on axis due to conic section - not aplanatic: linear growth of coma with field size § Aplanatic: - Perfect stigmatic imaging on axis, spherical corrected - linear coma vanishes: good correction off-axis but near to axis - quadratic grows of spot size due to astigmatism - aplanatic and perfect marginal ray quite different
37 Aplanatic vs Non-aplanatic Lens § Same focal length § Same NA = 0. 75 § Principal surfaces completly different § Incoming diameter different § Field correction different
38 Spherical Corrected Surface § Seidel contribution of spherical aberration with § Result § Vanishing contribution: 1. first bracket: vertex ray 2. second bracket: concentric 3. bracket: aplanatic surface § Discussion with the Delano formula 2. concentric corresponds to i' = i 3. aplanatic condition corresponds to i' = u
39 Aplanatic Surfaces with Vanishing Spherical Aberration § Aplanatic surfaces: zero spherical aberration: 1. Ray through vertex 2. concentric 3. Aplanatic § Condition for aplanatic surface: § Virtual image location § Applications: 1. Microscopic objective lens 2. Interferometer objective lens
40 Aplanatic Lenses § Aplanatic lenses § Combination of two spherical corrected surfaces: one concentric and one aplanatic surface: zero contribution of the whole lens to spherical aberration § Not useful: 1. aplanatic-aplanatic 2. concentric-concentric bended plane parallel plate, nearly vanishing effect on rays
41 Aplanatic Lenses § Impact of aplanatic lenses in microscopy on magnification § Three cases of typical combinations
42 Aplanatic Surface § Simple construction of general aplanatic surface § Equations § No general solution for arbitrary refractive index
43 General Aplanatic Surface § General approach of Fermat principle: aplanatic surface § Cartesian oval, 4 th order § Special case OPD = 0: Solution is spherical aplanatic surface
44 General Aplanatic Surface § In general ellipsoidal surface § Only one value with degenerated ellipsoid: sphere
45 Isoplanatism § General definition of isoplanatism: - Invariance of performance for small lateral shifts of the field position - spherical aberration not necessarily corrected § Usual simple case: near to axis § Consequences: - vanishing linear growing coma - caustic symmetrical around chief ray
46 Isoplanatism § General definition of isoplanatism: - Invariance of performance for small lateral shifts of the field position - spherical aberration not necessarily corrected § Usual simple case: near to axis § Consequences: - vanishing linear growing coma - caustic symmetrical around chief ray § Example: Microscopic lens 46

48 Isoplanatism Condition of Staeble-Lihotzky § Sagittal coma aberration: from the geometry of the figure and Lagrange invariant § Condition of Staeble-Lihotzky § Problems: - no quantitative measure - only tangential rays are considered - integral criterion
49 Isoplanatism from Wave Aberrations § Lateral shift of object point § Change in image § Change of wave aberration § Isoplanatism: change is equal d. W' = d. W
50 Isoplanatism § Berek's condition of proportionality § Berek's coincidence condition § Isoplanatism in case of defocussing: can only be fulfilled in one plane or for telecentricity
51 Piecewise Isoplanatism § Invariance of PSF: to be defined System § Possible options: 1. relative change of Strehl 2. correlation of PSF's § Examples for microscopic lenses with and without flattening correction § In medium field size: small isoplanatic patches § On axis: large isoplanatic area § Criteria not useful at the edge for low performance MO plane 100 x 1. 25 isoplanatic patch size in mm MO not plane 40 x 0. 85 isoplanatic patch size in mm Strehl 1% Psf correlation 0. 5% on axis 70 72 81 100 half field 3. 8 27 3. 1 field zone 2. 5 29 39 full field 45 3. 8 117 62
52 Offence Against the Sine Condition § Conradys OSC (offense against sine condition): - measurement of deviation of sagittal coma - quantitative validation of the sine condition § Only sagittal coma considered in case of OSC=0 the Staeble-Lihotzky condition is automatically fulfilled § OSC allows for the definition of surface contribution
53 OSC § Coma and isoplanatism are strongly connected § Vectorial OSC: linear scaling of spatial frequencies: perturbation of the linearity
54 Skew and Symmetrical Ray bundles § Three possibilities for symmetry and correction of skew bundles: 1. no correction coma, bundle asymmetric 2. isoplanatic coma corrected, bundle symmetric oblique spherical remains 3. aplanatic symmetric and corrected, also spherical on axis corrected
55 General Invariant of Welford § Rotation around axis for small angle calculation of change in wave aberration § Welfords condition (scalar triple product) § All other conditions can be obtained as special cases: 1. sine condition 2. off axis isoplanatism 3. Herrschel condition 4. Smith cos-invariant
56 Cos-Condition of Smith § From Eikonal theory: General condition of Smith: Invariance of the scalar product § Special case: P on axis, q = 90°: Abbe sine condition, invariant transverse magnification § Special case: P on axis, q = 0°: Herschel condition, invariant axial magnification
57 Herschel Condition § Herschel condition: Invariance of the depth magnification § In principle not compatible with the sine condition § Therefore a perfect imaging of a volume is impossible
