Stress Birefringence Modeling for Lens Design and Photonics

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Modeling the effects of mechanical-induced stress birefringence is critical for wavefront error and polarization sensitive optical systems. Optical design and optomechanical interface software tools to model stress birefringence are discussed and demonstrated for two examples. The first example compares the magnitude of birefringence as a function of lens shape parameters. The second example computes the stress-induced cross-talk in a wavelength selective switch used in the telecommunication industry.
