Acuña-Romo equation

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Acuña-Romo lens

In geometrical optics and optical engineering, the Acuña-Romo equation describes the solution to the problem of designing a lens without spherical aberration .

principle

The equation specifies how the second surface of a lens should be designed so that the spherical aberration generated by the first refractive surface of the lens is completely corrected for a point object on the optical axis.

Origin of the spherical aberration-free lens design

Some of the most important events for the design of the lens without spherical aberration are:

  • Diocles, in his book "Mirrors ustorios", having found that the parabolic mirror could focus the rays moving in the direction of an axis in a single point, it is possible to mention a lens with the same property.
  • Ibn Sahl deals with the optical properties of mirrors and curved lenses. He has been described as the discoverer of the law of refraction (Snell's law).
  • Rene Descartes examines Cartesian ovals and their applications in optics.
  • Christiaan Huygens suggests eliminating the spherical aberration with a set of spherical lenses. In the foreword of the work, "Traité de la lumière" also mentions that Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz addressed the problem.
  • Levi-Civita outlines the numerical solution for the design of corrective refractive surfaces.
  • GD Wasserman and E. Wolf propose an aplanatic lens based on an integral that they solve using numerical methods.
  • Daniel Malacara Hernández presents an approximate design of a lens without spherical aberration with two aspherical surfaces.
  • Psang Dain Lin and Chung-Yu Tsai obtain the lens design without spherical aberration from the numerical solution of a system of nonlinear equations.
  • Juan Camilo Valencia Estrada shows an analytical solution to the problem for specific individual cases.
  • Rafael G. González-Acuña and Héctor A. Chaparro-Romo present the general closed shape equation for designing a lens without spherical aberration.
