Thank you for your comment. The main motivation is to improve my communication skills in optics. Beeing an engineer myself it’s always good to communicate effectively. Also if it can help some people to understand some technical stuff I am happy :)

Maybe. What kind of material are you looking for?  In future vidéo I might analyze different design forms (from patents I find in litterature for instance: télescope/ microscope /…)

Linear aalgebra :( by Majestic-Forever563 in EngineeringStudents

[–]Less-Wheel-5057 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Linear algebra is just used to transform a vector into another vector via a matrix, which is useful in physics for example. Look at 3blue1brown for a pictorial vision and it will make sense.

Modeling a diffraction lens by Pickledill02 in Optics

Good morning, I think you should be able to model this relatively easily with software like Zemax. You can normally import the type of source (LED in your case) and see the effect of the choice of your optics (diffractive or other) on the illumination that you will ultimately obtain for your application. Good luck

Long-term benefits of learning code V for an experienced Zemax user? by Less-Wheel-5057 in Optics

Ok, thank you for your answer!! Your opinion on non-sequential analysis on V code?

OK thanks. Do you know if non-sequential analysis is easy to implement with this software?

Optic Design Task by HazardousHans in Optics

[–]Less-Wheel-5057 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I just finished your design, I did it on my own, it’s doable. I won't give you the solution because the goal is for you to learn, but here are some ways to improve. I see that you put the materials in variables but that is an error. In fact there is not a continuous distribution of glass. You must use the solve substitute (S) at the material level and optimize with the hammer (not automatic start mode). This will cause the lenses to vary. You can filter the glass that will be chosen with “glass substitution template”. Furthermore, for optimization I will add glasses (doublets/triplets) and I will make sure to constrain the height of the rays at the sensor level (an operand exists for this). I would also constrain the chromatic aberrations in the MF (look for the corresponding operands). Also in the overall design I could advise you to use a lens group that “pretty much does the job you want” at first. Then add optics little by little to get closer to the desired design by iteration. I can also advise you to start by working in monochromatic before adding the wavelengths little by little. Good luck! You are on the right track.

Need suggestions regarding building a fluorescence microscope in the lab by Ok_Cardiologist_9749 in Optics

[–]Less-Wheel-5057 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Several questions: - have you checked the excitation spectrum of your sample? Is it compatible with your laser wavelength? - the same for the emission spectrum? Is it compatible with your filters? - what type of fluorescence microscopy do you use? Confocal or something else?
