As part of the effort to localize the technology of the measurement of aspheric
optical surfaces within the available capabilities locally, we conducted a theoretical
study that includes the importance of these surfaces and design algorithm to achi
eve
better performance of optical systems, in addition to studying the most important
methods of measurement, with the allocation of the bulk of the research on the study
of optical systems that called "Optical Corrector", And methods of its investment,
and then seek to develop special optical correctors.
In the frame of expanding the concept of optical design to include the designing and manufacturing of opt-mechanical systems, and the effect of static stresses on optical elements due to fastening of metal retainers and the resulting optical performa
nce, a literature review was carried out to show the effect of static stresses on optical elements due to metallic contacts, temperature and adhesives. Numerical method of finite elements to predict the visual performance of optical systems had been performed.
