Abstract

With the recent addition of Moore's high-yield feature in Zemax, a convenient path to optimiza- tion for as-built performance while reducing computation time has been introduced. In order to analyze the cost and outcome of optimization with the new feature and other approaches, we consider a side-by-side comparison of the conventional approach, high-yield approach, and other alternatives. The benchmark design under consideration is a basic Double Gauss lens due to the extensive studies of its variants since its conception. A total of eight approaches are considered, and the resulting designs and their tolerance sensitivities are presented in order to provide recommendation of a favorable approach.
