Re. Ilinskii, NEW APPROXIMATION OF THE EQUATION OF AN ASPHERIC SURFACE WITH AN INVOLUTE PROFILE, Journal of optical technology, 65(4), 1998, pp. 308-309
This paper proposes a new representation of the coefficients of a powe
r series for approximating the equation of an aspheric surface with an
involute profile. A numerical example shows that the new representati
on ensures higher accuracy of the approximation than does the power se
ries proposed in Opt. Zh. 58, No. 10, 45 (1991) [Sov. J. Opt. Technol.
58, 649 (1991)]. (C) 1998 The Optical Society of America.
