6. Diffraction, MTF, and Image Simulation

6. Diffraction, MTF, and Image Simulation

This course offers a review of diffraction theory and the different domains of validity of OpticStudio analyses. It also includes an example of how to design a Double Gauss for specific MTF targets, and how to use Image Simulation to visualize pictures as imaged through the modelled system.
