When Galileo designed the tube of his first telescope,
optomechanics was born. Concerned with the shape and position of
surfaces in an optical system, optomechanics is a subfield of
physics that is arguably as old as optics. However, while
universities offer courses on the subject, there is a scarcity in
textbook selections that skillfully and properly convey
optomechanical fundamentals to aspiring engineers. Complemented by
tutorial examples and exercises, this textbook rectifies this issue
by providing instructors and departments with a better choice for
transmitting to students the basic principles of optomechanics and
allowing them to comfortably gain familiarity with the field's
content. Practicing optical engineers who engage in self-study and
wish to enhance the extent of their knowledge will also find
benefit from the vast experience of the authors. The book begins
with a discussion of materials based on optomechanical figures of
merit and features chapters on windows, prisms, and lenses. The
authors also cover topics related to design parameter, mounting
small mirrors, metal mirrors with a discussion of infrared
applications, and kinematic design. Overall, Fundamentals of
Optomechanics outfits students and practitioners with a stellar
foundation for exploring the design and support of optical system
surfaces under a wide variety of conditions. Provides the
fundamentals of optomechanics Presents self-contained,
student-friendly prose, written by top scientists in the field
Discusses materials, windows, individual lenses and multiple lenses
Includes design, mounting, and performance of mirrors Includes
homework problems and a solutions manual for adopting professors
