Opto-Mechanical Systems Design, Fourth Edition is different in many
ways from its three earlier editions: coauthor Daniel Vukobratovich
has brought his broad expertise in materials, opto-mechanical
design, analysis of optical instruments, large mirrors, and
structures to bear throughout the book; Jan Nijenhuis has
contributed a comprehensive new chapter on kinematics and
applications of flexures; and several other experts in special
aspects of opto-mechanics have contributed portions of other
chapters. An expanded feature-a total of 110 worked-out design
examples-has been added to several chapters to show how the theory,
equations, and analytical methods can be applied by the reader.
Finally, the extended text, new illustrations, new tables of data,
and new references have warranted publication of this work in the
form of two separate but closely entwined volumes. The first
volume, Design and Analysis of Opto-Mechanical Assemblies,
addresses topics pertaining primarily to optics smaller than 50 cm
aperture. It summarizes the opto-mechanical design process,
considers pertinent environmental influences, lists and updates key
parameters for materials, illustrates numerous ways for mounting
individual and multiple lenses, shows typical ways to design and
mount windows and similar components, details designs for many
types of prisms and techniques for mounting them, suggests designs
and mounting techniques for small mirrors, explains the benefits of
kinematic design and uses of flexures, describes how to analyze
various types of opto-mechanical interfaces, demonstrates how the
strength of glass can be determined and how to estimate stress
generated in optics, and explains how changing temperature affects
opto-mechanical assemblies. The second volume, Design and Analysis
of Large Mirrors and Structures, concentrates on the design and
mounting of significantly larger optics and their structures,
including a new and important topic: detailed consideration of
factors affecting large mirror performance. The book details how to
design and fabricate very large single-substrate, segmented, and
lightweight mirrors; describes mountings for large mirrors with
their optical axes in vertical, horizontal, and variable
orientations; indicates how metal and composite mirrors differ from
ones made of glass; explains key design aspects of optical
instrument structural design; and takes a look at an emerging
technology-the evolution and applications of silicon and silicon
carbide in mirrors and other types of components for optical
applications.
