Zemax OpticStudio Tool: Advanced Astigmatism Analysis

Zemax OpticStudio Tool: Advanced Astigmatism Analysis

Detailed astigmatism evaluation across the complete optical system


Precise astigmatism characterization is critical for understanding image quality and system performance. Advanced Astigmatism Analysis enables a detailed evaluation of astigmatism behavior across the full optical system, systematically analyzing each configuration, wavelength, and field point.


The tool extracts both Zernike astigmatism and Seidel astigmatism values, providing comprehensive insight into third-order and primary aberrations. It computes astigmatism with user-defined increments over field points and pupil positions and outputs the results for further evaluation.


Key Features:


- Comprehensive System Analysis: Evaluates astigmatism for each configuration, wavelength, and field point in the optical design.


- Zernike and Seidel Astigmatism: Calculates both Zernike-based astigmatism and classical Seidel astigmatism.


- Fine Sampling Control: Supports user-defined increments for field and pupil sampling.


- Graphical Visualization: Generates intuitive plots showing astigmatism trends across the system.


- Data Export: Saves detailed numerical results in text files for further analysis and reporting.


- MATLAB Integration: Summary information is presented directly in the MATLAB command window for quick review.


With Advanced Astigmatism Analysis, optical engineers can perform an in-depth evaluation of astigmatism across the full optical design, ensuring better control over optical performance and system optimization.
