NARIT-Institut d’Optique Graduate School "Optical Design Summer School 2018"
Managed by Optica
05 - 10 Aug 2018
Chiang Mai, Chiang Mai, Thailand
The concept of the proposed workshop is to initiate to the optical design methods related to imaging instruments. The participants will learn the methods to design an optical instrument and how to use the ZEMAX software. The workshop will be addressed to advanced students (PhD students, and MSc students), researchers and engineers from industry. After the workshop the participants will be able to design simple optical instruments for imaging application. The program will address the following domains: • Definition of an optical system. • Optical aberrations and image quality criteria. • Optical design : from classical optical systems to TMA with freeform optics. • Performance budget establishment (sensitivity and tolerancing analyses). • Practical optical design sessions with ZEMAX software. The workshop courses will cover a duration equal to 5 days and will comprise both theoretical courses and practical activities with the ZEMAX software. Lectures and tutorials will be held by experienced researchers in optical design. The workshop will be provided at NARIT headquarters located at Chiang Mai, a vibrant and pleasant city in northern Thailand, with many touristic attractions. The program will include one opening dinner, one full-day excursion and one closing dinner. The total duration will thus be equal to 6 days:5 days of lectures/tutorials + 1 day of social event.
