ABSTRACT

Design of a five-element (P-PP-N-P) zoom condenser system with

a zoom ratio of 10 to 1 is presented. The system stop is located at the

last surface of the last element, its effective size is varied from 2.5

mm to 2.5 mm in radius by an optical method. The image field (entrance

pupil of the projection system) varies from 25 mm to 2.5 mm in radius.

Two aspheric surfaces are employed to correct distortion and spherical

aberration.

The goal was to design a zoom condenser to match a hypothetical

zoom projection system.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

The function of a condenser is to collect as much light as

possible from a source and direct it through the entrance pupil of a

projection optical system. The illumination produced by an optical

system is then determined by its angle of illumination. Therefore,

if such an optical system is working in a certain zoom range, its

illumination will vary from magnification to magnification, unless

some method is employed to compensate this variation.

Conventionally, an adjustable (in size) aperture stop is used

to control the total amount of light passing through the optical system

and this can be referred to as a "mechanical adjustment."

We will call the other method to be discussed here an "optical

adjustment." In this method we can either (a) have the exit pupil

stationary both in size and location, or (b) keep the entrance pupil

stationary and let the exit pupil vary in size and position. In the

former case, we have the optical system designed so that its aperture

stop is at the last surface next to the image plane. The only require­

ment then is to zoom the illumination optics such that the entrance

pupil of the optical system is always properly filled. The entrance

pupil of the illumination pptics will then vary in size and shift in

position as the system is zoomed. In the second case, the entrance

pupil is fixed in place and the condenser is zoomed to the proper

magnification according to the operation of the optical system. This

scheme is investigated in this study. This approach presumes, of course,

that a constant Lagrange invariant, nhu, is maintained by the projection

optics. This is, in fact, a very reasonable assumption to make, when

feasibility of the illumination optics is to be discussed as a separate

topic.

Chapter II reviews the theory of illumination. The problem is

then defined in Chapter III. Chapter IV describes the approach of first

order design. Aberrations are briefly discussed in Chapter V to suit

our interest. Corrections of aberrations by using ACCOS programs are

given in Chapter VI. To conclude this study, the system is then

evaluated in Chapter VII.

CHAPTER 2

THEORY OF ILLUMINATION

"The illumination at a point of a surface is the quotient of the

luminous flux incident on an infinitesimal element of surface containing

the point under consideration by the area of this element (symbol E)."

This definition is given by Walsh (1965). Hence we may define illumina­

tion as the amount of light falling upon unit area of surface provided

that light is uniformly distributed over the surface considered. It is

' expressed, for example, as lumens per square foot (i.e., footcandle).

The following concepts are essential to the following discussions:

The Inverse. Square- Law -

Consider a point source of constant intensity I (Fig. 2.1), the

illumination on a surface of circular cross section area A at a distance

S, by definition, can be written as

ea = ^ C2-11

Fig. 2.1. The Inverse Square Law.

Page 13: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

where fi is the solid angle subtended by the illuminated area at the

point source and for small cone angles,

$ =

thus (2.2)

ea = y

this is the Inverse Square Law.

The.Cosine Law of Illumination

When radiation is incident at an angle 0 (Fig. 2.2), the pro­

jected receiving area normal to the incident direction is

pointsource

Fig. 2.2; Cos3 9 Law .

reduced by the factor cos 8, the distance from the source to the

illuminated surface is increased by the same factor cos 9. Therefore,

the solid angle subtended by the receiving area is reduced by a factor

Page 14: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

cos3 0 and the corresponding illumination at an angle 0., from Eq. (2.1)

is related to the on-axis illumination E by' . o

Eg = Eo cos3 0 (2.3)

However, we have to consider the illumination produced by a

finite source. Let its elementary area be dA% and the elementary

illuminated area be dA^, 8% and 02 are angles between the normals to

these surfaces and the line joining the surface elements (Fig. 2.3).

Then the amount of light, dF, emitted by the source element in the

direction 0% is

dF =:• B(dA% cos 0%) dwg

dA.dA

Fig. 2.3, Illumination from a Finite Source .

where B is the source luminance (or brightness in terms of visual

effect) and dti)2 is the solid angle subtended:by the receiver (dA2) at

the source, that is

therefore the illumination at dAg becomes

an B dAj cos 0! dm2 'dE = dA^ = dAf --- = B dt°l cos 02 (2.4)

dA% cos 8%where dw% = r-— ^ is the solid angle subtended by the source

' s 2 .element at the receiver. Hence the illumination from a small source is

proportional to the cosine of the angle of incidence.

Illumination Produced by a Lambertian Source

Experiments have shown that most extended sources, for moderate

values of 8%, follow Lambert's Cosine Law. That is the luminous

intensity, I, falls off as the cosine of the angle of emission, or in

mathematical equivalent form

% = I0 cos 01 - (2.5)

this relationship is known as the Cosine Law of Emission. Hence the

luminance in the direction 0% is

102 : I0 cos 0i I0B01 AQl Aq COS 01 ■ ; A0 B0

where A ^ is the projected area normal to the direction of emission.

Therefore its luminance is independent of the viewing direction.

Page 16: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

Now for an extended source which follows Lambert's Cosine Law

(i.e., a Lambertian Source), we will calculate the illumination

produced at a point X (Fig. 2.4). For simplicity, we consider the

case of a circularly symmetric source.

dA

Point X is in a plane parallel to the source disc, then

0! = 02 = 0

4) becomes, '

dEe = BdA cos 0 COS 0 = B ^

s2(S/cos 8)2

Page 17: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

Thus at off-axis points, the illumination falls off as the fourth

power of the cosine of the angle measured from axis.

From the geometry, the same illumination is produced by each

incremental area making a ring of radius r and width dr, then the area

of this ring is

dA = 2 it r dr

and the total illumination from this ring can be written as

dE = B 2 n r dr cos i

but r = S tan0i, dr = S sec20 d0

then dE = L j jrCS tan.8) (S sec^ de) cos^e = 2lrB sin6 cos6 de

S2

integrating over the entire surface, we obtain the illumination at

point X produced by the Lambertian disc source

9E = f dE = 2ttB sin0 cos0 d0 = ttB sin20 (2.6)C JA Jo

where subscript c denotes circular source.

In the case of non-circular source, an approximation can be

made by noting that the solid angle subtended by the source from X is

0 = 2tt (1 - cos0) = 2tt — -5-in 91 + COS0

Page 18: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

for small angle 0,

ft - a) = irsin20

Therefore the illumination produced by a diffuse source of luminance

B at a point from which the source area subtends a solid angle oj is

E = Boo ( 2 .

Note that Eq. (2.4) would have the same form if a Lambertian source

(B = constant) and small angle of 0 were assumed.

Luminance of Optical Images

Consider an aplanatic optical system imaging an elementary

area dA of a Lambertian source at dA' as shown in Fig. 2.5.

dA dA'-h

principal surfaces

Fig. 2.5. Aplanatic Optical Imaging System.

Page 19: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

10

Then the flux intercepted by area P on the first principal surface can

be written as

dF = B — dA cos 6S2

while the luminance at A' can be expressed as

B' = T (B — dA cosQ) (2.8)S2 (P'/S'2) dA' cos6'

where T = transmission factor of optical system

The sine condition gives:

nhsin6 = n'h'sine’

where h and h' are object and image heights, 8 and 6' are corresponding

marginal ray angles. Squaring both sides:

n2 h2 sin29 = n'2 h '2 sin26'

Remembering that

Aj_ _ hj2 _ (S '/n*)2 = n2 S'2A h2 (S/n)2 n'2 S2

Also note that principal surfaces are images of unit magnification, or

P cos8 = P' cos9'

Eq. (2.8) can then be simplified as follows:

B' = T B (n'/n)2 (2.9)

At image plane A', the corresponding illumination is

E' = T B (n'/n)2 tt sin2e' (2.10)

Page 20: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

11

where 9' is the half angle subtended by the exit pupil of the system at

the axial image point.

When both object and image lie in media of the same refractive

index, Eq. 2.10 becomes

E' = T B tt sin2 0 ’ (2.11)

for a circular exit pupil, and

E' = T B go (2.12)

for non-circular exit pupils and small values of 9’.

Since the flux is confined to a cone of solid angle tt sin2 9',

outside this cone there is no luminance at all.

Illumination by Projection

Fig. 2.6 shows the conventional projection system in air. The

condenser images the source into the entrance pupil of the projection

lens so that the lens aperture has the same luminance as the source

excluding the transmission factor involved.

12

Consider a small area (not shown in the figure) in the plane

of the transparency which has a luminance Then the amount of light

arriving at the entrance pupil of the projection system is

'1 = £2

where # 2 = area of source image

£ = distance from transparency to entrance pupil of projection

system.

Assuming a\ is a small circular area of radius r, then

a 1 = ir r|

and

tt r^ a.2 r^'l =' — . =ir B1&2 — = tt B1a2 sin2 m 1 (2.13)

where u' is the marginal ray angle. .

From previous analysis, we know that the luminance of the

source image is equal to T B, where T is the transmission factor of

the condenser and B is luminance of the source. Hence the amount of

light passing through the condenser and reaching the entrance pupil

of the projection system, following Eq. (2.11), is

F = 7T T B a2 sin2 u ' o c z (2.14)

Page 22: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

Equating Fi = F we have

Bi = T B 1 c

Therefore the effective luminance of the transparency is equal to that of

the source multiplied by the proper transmission factor of the optics

considered.

Thus the illumination on the screen can be written as

E = T ir B sin2 8' = T B co (2.15)

where B = luminance of the source

T = transmission factor of the system

6 * = half angle subtended by the exit pupil from the screen

Let D = diameter of projection lens

£' = distance from projection lens to screen

= focal length of projection lens

£c = separation between source and condenser

5 = lamp filament diameter (circular shape assumed)

the magnification of the condenser can then be written as

Mc = £ji/Zc = D/6

Similarly, for a long projection distance, the magnification of

projection lens is

Page 23: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

■ 14In the above formulation, we have assumed that plane of the transparency

is close to the condenser (i.e., f^ = t ) . The solid angle subtended

by the projection lens is

irD2/4 it ^ c 62 tt .62to = — --- — - — ---- — - — ----V 2 m / f£2 4 M£2 £c2

For a system free of vignetting, the illumination on the screen can be

written as

Therefore the image illumination varies when the magnification of the

projection system changes.

CHAPTER 3

REQUIREMENT FOR CONSTANT ILLUMINATION

General Consideration

In Chapter 2, Illumination by Projection, we have shown that

the illumination on an image plane is

E. = T ir B sin2 6' (3.1)

where 8' is a measure of the system magnification. Thus the illumination

changes as the magnification varies. To keep the illumination constant,

we can either (1) vary the aperture size accordingly through a mechanical

device, or (2) use a zoom condenser system. The first method has been

widely used and will not be discussed here. We will therefore concen­

trate on the second method.

In the paraxial region, Eq. (3.1) becomes

E = TT T B 8'2

then the total flux passing through the system is

F = E-A = T tt B G'2 ir h'2 = ir2 T B (6'h')2

where A = irh12 - circular image area.

Here we recognize that 8'h' is equal to the optical invariant, H,

hence the total flux transmitted by the system is proportional to the

15

Page 25: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

16optical invariant squared. Therefore, if the flux transmitted is kept

constant, the illumination will be constant so long as the image stays

the same size. This implies that we should have a single value of the

optical invariant, H, throughout the system at all magnifications. Our

task in then to match the size of the entrance pupil (of the projection

system), at every magnification, to that of the source image. In other

words, the effective size of the entrance pupil is equal to the image

size of the source. This will ensure that the total amount of flux

which gets through the system stays constant.

Description of the Problem

With a given optical invariant H and image height h’, 9' is

fixed. Either the pupil diameter or its location will specify the

system completely. Fig. 3.1 gives one configuration of the system: 0

is the source element, 1 through 5 are condenser elements (among them

2, 3, and 4 are moving parts), surface 6 is the image plane or entrance

stop entrance(condenser) pupil

Fig. 3.1. A Zoom Condenser System-

17

pupil of the projection system, the transparency lies between 5 and 6

and in general, close to element 5. Hence the image of the source

formed on surface 6 varies in size at different magnifications. We will

attempt to design a set of zoom lenses with the following parameters:

zoom ratio: 10 to 1

tc: 200 mmD

total field size (diameter of image): 5 mm to 50 mm

corresponding F/no: F/40 to F/4

diameter of lamp filament: 10 mm

Hence'we calculate the optical invariant as

H = n hp Up = (1) (50/2) (-1/80) = -5/16

and axial incident ray angle

uo = H/ho = (-5/16)/(-5) = 1/16.

Table 3.1 gives some of the parameters as calculated at different

magnifications.

CHAPTER 4

FIRST-ORDER ZOOM LENS DESIGN

Thin Lens Solution

A. D. Clark (1973) gave a good review of zoom lenses. In his

monograph, he described different methods to approach a first-order

solution. As usual, we break the system into three groups: (a) fixed

front group, (b) zooming group, and (c) fixed rear group. After

trying several configurations, including a telescopic zooming group,

we found that the following approach is feasible.

First, we start with the fixed front and rear groups for one

extreme magnification, adding a zooming group in between them to obtain

other magnifications. We also deliberately extend the magnification

range so that a certain extra range.allowance is provided. This will

relieve a possible difficulty when we get into the thick lens solution.

As shown in Fig. 4.1, each group may have one or more lens

elements as required. For simplicity, we let the axial ray travelling

within the fixed rear group be collimated. That is y^ = y^, and t^

is rather arbitrary except for chief ray considerations. Thus in the

absence of lenses 2 and 3 (their powers are equal in magnitude and

opposite in sign), we can determine the powers of lenses 1 and 4. The

power of lens 5 is then fixed by the back focal, distance of the total

19

20

system. The powers of lenses 2 and 3 are calculated by applying

paraxial refraction and transfer equations to the other extreme

tion. In our formulation, however, physical solutions can be obtained

only if we start with the lower end magnification (-0.5x).

To expedite such lengthy calculations, we worked out general

equations which fulfilled the prescribed restrictions (Appendix A)

We then determined if there was a possible first order solution with

certain input parameters. A Hewlett-Packard 9100B calculator was used

to handle these calculations.

After we had reasonable lens powers, we determined the spacings

between the lenses at any magnification within the magnification range

Thick Lens Solution

To be a real system, thickness must be inserted into the lenses

we designed. The power of a thick lens can be calculated as:

(j) = ( n - l ) ( c 1- c 2 + ^ p t c 1c 2 ) (4.1)

As shown in Fig. 4.3, c% and c2 are curvatures (with proper signs), t is

thickness and n is the refractive index of the lens material; s and s'

locate the two principal points (P and Pf) which are essential in

relating thin lens to thick lens solutions. They can be obtained as:

t 4*2 s ’ = " n F

where (j) = (n-1) Cj (j)2 — -(n-1) c2.c

With an arbitrary curvature ratio K = Eq. (4.1) becomes,

c 2 =

-n(K-1)2(n-1)tK 1 - / 1 40tK

Fig. 4.4 gives us some idea of how these parameters change. Alterna­

tively, s and s' can be determined by tracing a parallel ray from either

side. of a lens successively.

In picking glasses for our application, we need to consider

their thermal properties in addition to their optical properties.

Essentially, we want low-expansion, high thermal conductivity and high

heat capacity. From the Schott Glass Table we find that BK7 and

F2 are acceptable and popular ones. Their important properties are

listed in Appendix B . Schott Optical Glass (1966).

Bending of lens V is set to yield minimum primary spherical

aberration and coma contributions. For others, their shapes are

arbitrarily defined. Fig. 4.5 gives a system schematic picture. Thick­

ness of lenses are checked against their required clear apertures defined

by paraxial ray traces.

Since lens II would need about 40 mm thickness to maintain its

necessary clear aperture as a singlet, we break it into two in contact.

Lenses IV and V have fixed spacing between them and they therefore can

be combined as one. Finally, we end up with a slightly different five-

element design as shown in Fig. 4.6.

Table 4.2 gives lens data of first-order thick lens solution (2)

and Table 4.3 gives system parameters of first-order thick lens

solution (2).

CHAPTER 5

ABERRATION CONSIDERATIONS

The success of our first-order solution depends solely upon

the accuracy of our calculations. However, its results are applicable

only to a small region close to the optical axis (paraxial region) and

at the-single wavelength used in our computation. Departure of rays

(by exact trigonometric raytrace) from paraxial image point yields

aberrations. There are five primary monochromatic aberrations and two

chromatic errors. For example, W. T. Weiford (1974) offered an

excellent treatment of these aberrations in his book. In this section,

we will briefly describe these aberrations in a manner to suit our

interest.

Spherical Aberration (SA)

This is the variation of focus with aperture. It depends on

ray height, object position, and bending of lenses. A point source

image suffering from SA has a bright dot surrounded by a halo of light.

The contrast of an extended image will be softened and image details

blurred. It is less important for non-imaging systems. However,

excessive SA may result in dark areas or rings because the effect of

vignetting may appear on the screen, especially when the source image

completely fills the projection lens aperture'.

33

Page 43: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

Coma (CMA)

This is one of the off-axis imaging.defects which causes

variation of magnification with aperture. It is a rather undesirable

defect because of its non-symmetrical feature, the results being non-

uniform in energy distribution. The shape of the lens and its stop

location are two factors which govern this sort of aberration.

Astigmatism (AST)

Astigmatism occurs when tangential and sagittal foci do not

coincide. The image of a point source becomes two separate lines

perpendicular to each other. An extended image would compose ellip­

tical patches of light. A circular patch can be obtained by defocusing

the image plane so it is located midway between the tangential and

sagittal foci. Bending and stop shifts are employed in aberration

correction.

Field Curv ature (FC)

An aberration which gives curved image field even in the absence

of astigmatism. Its existence has an additive effect to astigmatism

if the latter does not vanish. Therefore the two are normally treated

together. In some instances, FC can be used to balance against higher

order aberrations. For example, in a triplet design, residual FC is

left in to balance backward curving higher order sagittal field curva­

ture and oblique spherical aberration (OBSA). The power of the elements

and refractive indices are determining factors of this defect. This

aberration is of little importance in condenser design.

Page 44: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

Distortion (DIST)

A defect which results in variation of magnification with field

angle and shift of image proportional to the cube of the Gaussian image

height. The image of a line object which does not go through axis is

curved. This defect is usually corrected by shifting the stop,

although it can also be done at the expense of other aberrations. In

this condenser design, distortion must be controlled to obtain full

illumination.

Chromatic Aberration

This is the result of inherent properties of the glasses used.

Because refractive index varies with wavelength, unless the system is

operated at the single designed wavelength, both focus and magnifica­

tion change with wavelength. These are referred to as longitudinal (or

axial) and lateral chromatic aberration, respectively. A point image

will have different color compositions,at different focal positions.

On the image plane, color rings will show up because each color has its

own chief ray. The image of an extended object near the edge of the

field and illuminated with white light will be surrounded by colored

fringes. In practice, corrections are achieved at two or three wave-

lengths by achromatizing or apochromatizing each element of the system.

Lateral color can also be reduced or eliminated by a stop shift. For

a thin lens, when the stop is at the lens, there is no lateral color

or distortion.

Page 45: Design of a zoom condenser system - University of Arizona · 2020. 4. 2. · DESIGN OF A ZOOM CONDENSER SYSTEM By Muh-fa Chen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the COMMITTEE ON

36

Of the above five monochromatic aberrationsspherical aberra­

tion, coma, and astigmatism affect image sharpness, while field curvature

and distortion change the geometry of the image. Strictly speaking,

any of these aberrations will result in a loss of light. Yet for a

condenser system, larger amounts of aberration can be tolerated without

losing its function of collecting light from a lamp and directing it

toward the aperture of the projection lens.

From our discussion above, we may conclude that spherical

aberration and chromatic error are more important than others in a

condenser system.

It is for simplicity of discussion that we broke the imaging

defects into five monochromatic aberrations and two chromatic errors.

In a real system, however, more than one aberration exists at the same

time. Also, higher order aberrations may dominate in certain situations.

The primary monochromatic aberrations are also wavelength dependent.

Therefore, it is too complicated to express aberrations analytically.

In Table 5.1 we summarize' the above discussed aberrations with different

notations cited.

CHAPTER 6

ABERRATION DESIGN

Our first order design gives powers, spacings, clear apertures

and angles of incidence and emergence. Therefore the variables left

over are refractive indices and lens shape factors. Once the glasses

are chosen, we can only change the shapes of lenses (bending) and/or

move the stop around to correct aberrations.

First we put our thick lens data (Table 3) into ACCOS IV

(ACCOS-GOALS, 1967) program for analysis. From the output FORD tables

(Appendix C) we notice that

(a) distortion and third order pupil spherical aberration are

huge at higher magnifications,

(b) chromatic errors are tremendous at higher magnifications,

(c) third order spherical aberration is relatively large at lower

magnifications.

Ray fans of both extreme and mid-magnifications are shown in Fig- 6.1.

Since our stop is fixed at surface 11, stop shift is not available for

aberration correction. Our attempt to reduce distortion was unsuccess­

ful when, restricted to spherical surfaces. Because distortion is

related to pupil spherical aberration, elimination of the latter will

also reduce the former. From our inspection, we find that surface

7 (or 4, 5, 6 ) is a proper one to be aspherized. Since in that lens

group chief ray heights are huge and incident angles are unusually large

compared to those at other Surfaces. This can also be seen from the

stop shift equations: (Appendix D). It is advisable to add aspherics

where the chief ray height is greatest to correct distortion with least

effect on spherical aberration. On the contrary, to correct spherical

aberration, the aspheric should be added at the surface where the chief

ray goes through the axis (stop location).as is usually done for the

Schmidt system. Figs. 6.2 a and b show the ray aberrations at extreme

magnifications when spherical aberration is removed. Fig. 6.3 shows ray

fans at -5x with distortion corrected. Shown in Fig. 6.4 are those with

PSAS reducted. Up to this step, we see that astigmatism is relatively

large, so we try to reduce it. This step of the correction leads us to

the results shown in Figs. 6.5 a through g. Our first response to these

curves may suggest defocus for the next step. When we defocus, however,

we gain the image quality at the expense of system efficiency. This

further step is unlikely to be justified in a non-imaging condenser

system.

The next point to be noted is chromatic aberration. Since it is

controlled by glass dispersion, color control is not feasible on a

balancing basis in a zoom system. If we really want to correct it, we

are forced to achromatize or apochromatize each of the lens groups.

Again this may not be justified by its increased cost. We would rather

leave our aberration design at this stage and analyze our system in

Chapter 7.

CHAPTER 7

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

In Fig. 7.1 we show the scaled drawing of the condenser elements

and, in Table 7.1, the lens data of the final version. The primary ray

aberrations as a function of magnification are given in Fig. 7.2. Spac-

ings between elements are the same as those given in Table 4.3. Real

ray aberrations have been depicted in Fig. 6.5, a through g. For a

condenser system. We are more concerned about its function of collecting

light from the lamp directing it toward the aperture of the projection

lens. In this design we are aiming at constant illumination on the screen.

We are therefore interested in the amount of light transmitted as well

as its color structure. For analysis purposes, we trace rays backwards

from the edge of the field (image plane of condenser or entrance pupil

of projection system) through the edge of the exit pupil, one through

the top and one through the bottom, with another ray traced through one

edge (equivalent to two) in the sagittal plane. Due to aberrations,

these rays will not meet at the same point in the object plane (of source

filament). They will then define the limiting field boundary from

which light can get through different parts of the exit pupil (of

condenser) and reach the entrance pupil of the projection system.

Let the contribution through different parts of the pupil be equal, then

we average out these four values and plot them in Fig. 7.3. Since our

half field size is 5 nm (the aperture of the projection optics will be.

underfilled for those greater than 5 mm). On the other hand, on those

smaller than 5 mm, image of the source will overfill the aperture and

light is not fully utilized. Referring to Fig. 7.3, we see that at one

end of magnification (-l/2x), the aperture is underfilled and almost no

color errors show up. As we go on to higher magnifications, we have

different degrees of underfill and/or overfill at different wavelengths.

For example, at -3x, there are about 60% and 87% of filled aperture for

red, green and blue light respectively. That means different colors will

go through different parts of the entrance pupil of the projection

system. All aberrations will be complicated by such additional "wave­

length" dependent feature. This is a father undesirable result, .unless

the projection system is designed to compensate for it.

Aside from the monochromatic aberrations, for an overfilled

aperture (all colors) we will not have any color ring structures. It

seems that we should have larger lamp filament (radius 6.5 mm or larger)

so that we can overfill the aperture at all magnifications. However,

this is contrary to our desire to have equal amounts of energy reaching

the aperture Of the proj ection system. Therefore we have to make a

compromise and let the filament stay the same size, so that differences

in energy on the screen are small, and the color ring structures are small

and close to the outer part of the aperture. For a filament of 5.25 mm

in radius, the corresponding percentages of transmitted energy are:

486.1 ran 64% 83% under 100% 94% 91% 97%

656.3 ran under under under under under 100% 97%

For those designated as "under", we mean that the aperture

is underfilled. In this case, color fringes will show up towards the

edge of the aperture. We may limit the image field of the condenser

system (stop down the aperture of the projection system) to chop off

these fringe structures. Also we should note that the filament is

generally rectangular or square, and the projection lens pupil is

circular. Thus, only a nominal fit is really possible.

From our analysis above, we perhaps obtain an appreciation for

the■difficulty in designing a high-ratio zoom condenser. We conclude

that even for not a "perfect" design, we can be much better off than

with a non-zoom condenser. Without a zoom condenser, for a magnifica­

tion ratio of 10 to 1 , the illumination-will have a ratio of 1 to 100 at

the two extreme magnifications. We are sure that further improvement

can be achieved if more effort is devoted to the design. In any event,

this is a good starting point for a detailed design.
