CODE V’s fast wavefront differential tolerancing gives you the accuracy of a long Monte Carlo analysis—in just seconds. Not only does CODE V provide an accurate statistical analysis of the expected RMS or MTF performance with selected tolerances and compensators, it also identifi es the most sensitive, performance-driving tolerances. Utilizing a new Singular Value Decomposition algorithm, CODE V can even identify

the best compensators for your system from all the possible

compensators.

CODE V’s unique Interactive Tolerancing leverages the speed of wavefront differential tolerancing to allow you to make changes to the tolerance values and instantly see the impact on performance. In addition, CODE V supports slope error and RMS surface error tolerance types for specifying tolerances on aspheric surfaces in a way that can be modeled in the software and measured by your fabricator.

Try CODE V on your tolerancing problem. You’ll love the results.

• Achieve fast system tolerancing with the accuracy of a Monte Carlo analysis of thousands of trials.

• Let CODE V automatically select the most leveraged subset of compensators from a larger list for improved manufacturability and lowered costs.

• Tolerance aspheric surface errors that are easily measured in production using surface profi lometry.

• Instantly see the impact of tolerance changes on system performance.

• Create tolerance-insensitive designs by optimizing for best fabricated performance.

Welcome to the Exhibition!

SPIE would like to express its deepest appreciation to the program chairs, conference chairs, cochairs, program committees, and session chairs who have so generously given of their time and advice to make this symposium possible. The symposium, like our other conferences and activities, would not be possible without the dedicated contribution of our participants and members.

This program is based on commitments received up to the time of publication and is subject to change without notice.

Integrated Optical Testing of Intraocular Lenses

OptiSpheric® IOL simultaneouslymeasures the accurate diopterpower and MTF of intraocular len-ses in air and in-situ. Moreover itmeasures radii of curvature, BFLand FFL. An innovative design of aModel Eye allows for characterisati-on of bifocal or multifocal, spheric oraspheric lenses in-situ conditions.

The OptiSpheric® IOL offers extre-mely short measurement time forproduction quantities, testing pro-cedure according to EN/ISO 11979and direct traceability to internatio-nal standards. The advanced soft-ware uses script language for easyprogramming of automated testsequences.

For decades, Hamamatsu has been aleader in photonic devices. Now, wehave developed photomultipliertubes with quantum efficiency (QE)as high as 43%. This is a new milestonein our continuous mission to establishhigher levels of detector performance.

QE indicates the amount of incidentphotons that can be converted tophotoelectrons by a detector. Thehigher the QE, the higher thedetector sensitivity. This is absolutelyessential in high-precision lightmeasurement because it allows youto extend the limits of your detection

Hamamatsu continues to scale new heights of PMT performance

system. It is the technological key todiscovering new knowledge.

Hamamatsu’s new technology forincreased QE is the UBA & SBAseries photocathodes. The UBA photocathode typically climbs to43% QE at certain wavelengths, andthe SBA photocathode goes as highas 35% QE. Both types deliver significantly higher performance thanconventional bialkali photocathodes.They are the latest innovation in atime-tested detection technology—and one more step along the roadto peak PMT performance.
