Odd Asphere Lens



The Odd Asphere surface shape is defined by:

which is very similar to the Odd Asphere surface (there are 4 additional terms). The Odd Asphere Lens object consists of two of these faces, separated by a thickness. The total object shape is defined by 32 parameters:

Parameter # Description Face Name Face #
1 The Maximum Radial aperture. NA NA
2 The Thickness of the lens at the center. Side 0
3-4 Unused. NA NA
5 The front face radius of curvature. Front 1
6 The front face conic constant. Front 1
7-18 The front face coefficients α1 – α12 . Front 1
19 The back face radius of curvature. Back 2
20 The back face conic constant. Back 2
21-32 The back face coefficients α1 – α12 . Back 2
33 The Radial Aperture to the edge of the front side of the lens. Side 0
34 The Clear Semi-Diameter to the clear aperture of the rear face. Back 2
35 The Radial Aperture to the edge of the rear side of the lens. Side 0

The reference coordinate is the center of the front face. Face Numbers: Front face Face 1, back face Face 2, all other faces Face 0.
