From Maxwell's equations to thin lens optics -- Paraxial optics -- Paraxial analysis of the role of stops -- Towards facilitating paraxial treatment -- The photometry and radiometry of optical systems -- Optical imaging by real rays -- Monochromatic aberrations -- Chromatic aberrations -- Finite or total aberrations from system data by ray tracing -- Hopkins' canonical coordinates and variables in aberration theory -- Primary aberrations from system data -- Higher order aberrations in practice -- Thin lens aberrations -- Stop shift, pupil aberrations and conjugate shift -- Role of diffraction in image formation -- Diffraction images by aberrated optical systems -- System theoretic viewpoint in optical image formation -- Basics of lens design.
"Analysis and design of optical/photonic systems call for applications of principles of optics of varying degrees of approximation at different stages. This book is designed to provide adequate material for 'self-learning' and also act as a handy reference for the students of related Masters and Doctoral courses"--
