Abstract

Reflective block optical systems have been used to achieve tasks realized by lens systems, but offering compactness and flexibility to construct optical computing systems. Thus, the reflective optical systems have to achieve optimal optical performance. In this work, we use the procedure of ALSIE (Automatic Lens Design By Solving Inequalities, T. Suzuki, et al., J. Opt. Soc. Am., 56, 677, 1966) to optimize reflective optical systems. To realize the optimization some specific considerations are discussed. The spherical aberration of a reflective optical system is optimized by the present method, showing the optimal optical performance.
