System Matrix for a Thick Lens

厚透镜的系统矩阵

This is an examination of the system matrix for a thick lens in the form used by Meyer-Arendt. An alternative form of the system matrix is used by Hecht.

这是Meyer-Arendt所采用的厚透镜系统矩阵的考察。Hecht采用了一种不同的系统矩阵形式。

The example is for a lens with index of refraction n surrounded by air (n=1). It involves the surface powers of the lens and the thickness d between the vertexes. It also involves the principal planes H1 and H2. As with most ordinary geometrical optics, it is applicable only for small angles (paraxial rays). The development also follows the cartesian sign convention.

For glass with index of refraction
nlens = n =

对于折射率为n的透镜,有n =

the front surface power for lens radius
R1 = m is P1 = m-1

透镜半径 R₁ 的前表面功率为 m 时,P₁ = m - 1
中文译文中的待填/计算数值依次对应:1:r1 2:p1。实际数值以上方原输入框为准。

and the back surface power for lens radius
R2 = m is P2 = m-1

以及透镜半径R₂ = m时的后表面功率P₂ = m - 1
中文译文中的待填/计算数值依次对应:1:r2 2:p2。实际数值以上方原输入框为准。

Lens thickness d = m

(Note that for a double convex lens, the front surface radius R1 is positive and the back surface radius R2 is negative according to the Cartesian sign convention.)

(注意,对于双凸透镜,根据笛卡尔符号约定,前表面半径R1为正,后表面半径R2为负。)
透镜的厚度 d = m

The symbols used by Meyer-Arendt for the elements of the system matrix will be used.

b = a =

A number of other characteristics of the thick lens may be calculated from the system matrix.

厚透镜的许多其他特性可以从系统矩阵中计算出来。

The right-hand, or equivalent focal length of the lens is just the reciprocal of matrix element a: f2 = 1/a = m.

透镜的右手法则,或等效焦距,就是矩阵元素a的倒数:f₂ = 1/a = m。
中文译文中的待填/计算数值依次对应:1:f2。实际数值以上方原输入框为准。

The distance V2H2 from the right vertex to the associated principal plane is given by V2H2= (c-1)/a = m.

从右顶点到相关主平面的距离V₂H₂由V₂H₂ = (c-1)/a = m给出。
中文译文中的待填/计算数值依次对应:1:v2h2。实际数值以上方原输入框为准。

The right vertex focal length (or back focal length) is given by fv2 = c/a = m.

右顶点焦距(或后焦距)由 f v2 = c/a = m 给出。
中文译文中的待填/计算数值依次对应:1:fv2。实际数值以上方原输入框为准。

Note that the equivalent focal length f2 is the sum of the back vertex focal length and the distance from the vertex to the principal plane: f2 = fv2 + V2H2. Similar relationships exist for the left-hand or front vertex.

注意,等效焦距 f₂ 是后顶点焦距与顶点到主平面距离之和:f₂ = f_v2 + V₂ H₂。类似的关系也适用于左顶点或前顶点。

The left vertex focal length (or front focal length) is given by fv1 = -b/a = m.

左顶点焦距(或前焦距)由 f_v1 = -b/a = m 给出。
中文译文中的待填/计算数值依次对应:1:fv1。实际数值以上方原输入框为准。

The distance V1H1 from the left vertex to the associated principal plane is given by V1H1= (1-b)/a = m.

从左顶点到相关主平面的距离V₁H₁由V₁H₁ = (1 - b)/a = m给出。
中文译文中的待填/计算数值依次对应:1:v1h1。实际数值以上方原输入框为准。

The equivalent front focal length f1 is then given by f1 = -(b/a + V1H1) = m.

等效前焦点焦距 f₁ 则由 f₁ = -(b/a + V₁ H₁ ) = m 给出。
中文译文中的待填/计算数值依次对应:1:f1。实际数值以上方原输入框为准。

该例题适用于一个折射率为n的透镜,其周围是空气(n=1)。它涉及透镜的表面屈光力以及顶点之间的厚度d。它还涉及主平面H1和H2。如同大多数普通几何光学一样,它仅适用于小角度(近轴光线)。该发展也遵循笛卡尔符号约定。
