The experience of optical system aberration analysis using ZEMAX software demonstrates the necessity to acquire and combine data from different text windows such as windows of Longitudinal Aberration, Ray Fan, Field Curvature and Distortion, Lateral Colour etc. This routine operation takes much time and significantly slows down the design process. Moreover, an engineer should always remember about some features of data interpretation connected with different calculation algorithms in different optical schools. It instigated us to develop a macro that forms one-window aberration summary for afocal systems with proper data interpretation according to domestic optical scientific school.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
