The inverse reflector problem arises in geometrical nonimaging optics: Given a light source and a target, the question is how to design a reflecting free-form surface such that a desired light density distribution is generated on the…
In this paper we propose a method to compute a freeform reflector system for collimating and shaping a beam from a point source. We construct these reflectors such that the radiant intensity of the source is converted into a desired target.…
In this paper, we show that the near field reflector problem is a nonlinear optimization problem. From the corresponding functional and constraint function, we derive the Monge-Amp\`ere type equation for such a problem.
In this paper we propose a method to design a freeform lens including the effect of Fresnel reflections on the transmitted intensity. This method is elaborated for a lens with one freeform surface shaping a far-field target from a point…
The inverse reflector problem aims to design a freeform reflecting surface that can direct the light from a specified source to produce the desired illumination in the target area, which is significant in the field of geometrical…
In this paper, we discuss a mathematical model for inverse freeform design of an optical system with two reflectors in which light transfers from a point source to a point target. In this model, the angular light intensity emitted from the…
A metasurface is a surface, tipically a plane, on which a function called phase discontinuity is chosen so that the metasurface produces a desired reflection or refraction job. We derive the equations that the phase discontinuity function…
In this article we examine the regularity of two types of weak solutions to a Monge-Amp\`ere type equation which emerges in a problem of finding surfaces that refract coaxial light rays emitted from source domain and striking a given target…
We present an inverse method for transforming a given parallel light emittance to two light distributions at different parallel target planes using two freeform reflectors. The reflectors control both the spatial and directional target…
We design freeform lenses refracting an arbitrarily given incident field into a given fixed direction. In the near field case, we study the existence of lenses refracting a given bright object into a predefined image. We also analyze the…
Imaging systems are inherently prone to aberrations. We present an optimization method to design two-dimensional freeform reflectors that minimize aberrations for various parallel ray beams incident on the optical system. We iteratively…
This paper studies the multi-marginal Monge problem in the setting of compact metric spaces proving existence and uniqueness of solutions when the cost function is Lipschitz. We apply the results obtained to solve an optics problem…
We consider a PDE approach to numerically solving the reflector antenna problem by solving an Optimal Transport problem on the unit sphere with cost function $c(x,y) = -2\log \left\Vert x - y \right\Vert$. At each point on the sphere, we…
We propose an inverse method to design two-dimensional freeform imaging systems. We present the mathematical model to design a parallel-to-point double-reflector imaging system using inverse methods from nonimaging optics. We impose an…
Inverse rendering methods have achieved remarkable performance in reconstructing high-fidelity 3D objects with disentangled geometries, materials, and environmental light. However, they still face huge challenges in reflective surface…
We design lenses composed of a combination of standard freeform refracting surface and flat metasurface refracting an arbitrary incident field into a collimated beam with a fixed direction. In the near-field case, we study the existence of…
This paper addresses the problem of inverse rendering from photometric images. Existing approaches for this problem suffer from the effects of self-shadows, inter-reflections, and lack of constraints on the surface reflectance, leading to…
We present an approach for the study and design of reflectors with rotational or translational symmetry that redirect light from a point source into any desired radiant intensity distribution. This method is based on a simple conformal map…
Reflective imaging systems form an important part of photonic devices such as spectrometers, telescopes, augmented and virtual reality headsets or lithography platforms. Reflective optics provide unparalleled spectral performance and can be…
