Freeform optics has become the most prominent element of the optics industry. Advanced
freeform optical designs supplementary to ultra-precision manufacturing and metrology …

The material removal characteristics exhibit a strong dependence on the applied jet
pressure in fluid jet polishing. High jet pressure contributes to high polishing efficiency but …

We report on a near-infrared imaging spectrometer for sensing the three most prominent
greenhouse gases in the atmosphere (water vapor, carbon dioxide and methane). The …

Wide field-of-view imaging optics offer a huge potential for space-based Earth observation
enabling the capture of global data. Reflective imaging telescopes are often favored, as they …

This work introduces a new method, to the author's knowledge, to design a freeform-mirror-
based optical system from scratch by adding segments and an additional mirror. Each …

This paper presents a novel method, to the best of our knowledge, to design three-freeform-
mirror systems from scratch. The technique consists of getting an initial setup, before …

SPEXone is a multi-angle channeled spectropolarimeter that is developed by a Dutch
consortium consisting of SRON and Airbus Defence and Space Netherlands with support …

The leading order monochromatic aberrations are investigated for optical systems, which
obey single-plane symmetry and translational invariance. These aberrations are classified …

A method to design catadioptric systems from scratch based on optimizing an element of the
power set of stigmatic catadioptric systems is presented. This set contains all possible …

This manuscript introduces a method to design a freeform reflective optical system with the
particularity of being aplanatic and having several stigmatic pairs. To achieve this goal the …
