Exercise 4-1: Spherical Mirror
Derive the expression for the focal length of a spherical mirror in the paraxial limit and also
for finite height y of a collimated incoming beam (parallel to z axis). Calculate the formula of
the axial spherical aberration for this collimated incoming beam through third order in y!
Hint: use the reflection law to eliminate the appearing angles in favour of y and the radius of
curvature r!

Exercise 4-2: Spherical Aberration of a single lens
A thin plane-convex lens with focal length f' = 100 mm is used to focus a collimated beam
with diameter D = 10 mm and wavelength  = 1.06 m.
Draw a sketch of the lens in the optimal setup and explain why this orientation is
advantageous! Calculate the magnification parameter M and the bending parameter X of the
lens. The Quantity M is defined to be
M :
and
X :
uu'

u u'
r2  r1
,
r2  r1
where u and u’ are the angles of the ray with respect to the optical axis. The surface
contribution of the primary spherical wave aberration of a single lens can be expressed by
the formula

Calculate this coefficient for the refractive indices n = 1.4 and n = 2.0! Which choice of
refractive index is more advantageous? Also, calculate the transverse aberration y’ in the
image plane in the one-dimensional case with the pupil coordinate yp by using this formula in
the form WSPH y p  As  y 4p for both indices.

Compare the geometrical spot size and the diffraction Airy diameter!
Is the system diffraction limited?
Solution:
Sketch of the setup:
D

In this orientation, the bending of the rays is distributed on two surfaces. This gives smaller
incidence angles and a smaller impact of the non-linearity of the law of refraction, which
generates aberrations.
The bending parameter is:
the magnification parameter is:
X = +1 (-1 in Kingslake!!!)
M = +1
By inserting the data for f, n, X and M we get the coefficients:
1. index n = 1.4 :
As = -4.598 10-7 mm-3
2. index n = 2.0 :
As = -1.25 10-7 mm-3
The transverse aberration is related by with the wave aberration by
y'   R 
W
  f '4 y 3p  As
 yp
with reference sphere radius R = f'. This gives for the two cases the geometrical spot sizes
n = 1.4
DGeo  2y'  46m
n = 2.0
DGeo  2y'  12.5m
The Airy diameter is given by

Therefore, in the case of the higher index n=2, the system is diffraction limited, the smaller
index delivers a geometrical dominated broadening of the spot size.

Exercise 3-5: Field flattening lens
Calculate a thick meniscus shaped lens with refractive index n = 1.5 with vanishing Petzval
curvature contribution, a focal length of f = 100 mm and a front radius of r1 = +10 mm. The
back radius and the thickness are to be determined.
