Parametrizing Freeform Optical Surfaces for the Optimized Design of Imaging and Illumination Systems

Two optical design scenarios—imaging and illumination—were investigated for their use of Cartesian- and polar-based functions to generate freeform optical surfaces. The imaging scenario investigated a single-element, refracting freeform surface that converts an on-axis object field to an off-axis i...
