Abstract: Light scattering from residual manufacturing errors of optical surfaces has a large impact on the image quality of optical systems. Classical ray-based methods to simulate surface scattering in optical systems depend on statistical models of… read more here.

Abstract: Standard surface specifications for mid-spatial frequency (MSF) errors do not capture complex surface topography and often lose critical information by making simplifying assumptions about surface distribution and statistics. As a result, it is challenging to… read more here.
