Optical Glass – Properties and Application-oriented SpecificationSC1179 • Course Level: Intermediate • CEU: 0.7 $625 Members • $316 Student Members • $715 Non-Members USD Monday 8:30 am to 5:30 pm

Optical glass provides a central function in optical systems: the precisely defined refraction of light with the highest throughput. Large parts of the optical industry depend on this key material. Microscopes, binoculars, cameras, and projectors constitute ex-amples that are unthinkable without optical glass. Their properties, however, differ considerably from those of other technical materials such as metals or plastics. Datasheet values of refractive index extend to five decimal places (e.g. 1.51680) and homoge-neity might be specified to even two more digits (e.g. 2x10-7). This extreme precision sets optical glass apart from most other materials. For optical glass users it is important to know facts about its production and properties in order to specify optical elements adequately. Engineering drawing require-ments must ensure sound function of the optical system but should do so without over-specifying various attributes which might lead to higher costs, delivery time delay, or even non-availability. Appli-cation formats extend from the millimeter range up to about one meter. For small parts, glass properties are usually not expected to be critical. Most prop-erties, however, do not scale up linearly with the sample size. For large lenses and prisms, different scaling laws of glass properties must be taken into consideration in order to obtain suitable quality. For designing and purchasing of optical elements it is very useful to know the technical conditions of producing, post-processing, quality inspection, and application of optical glass. This course pro-vides knowledge about glass types and properties, including definitions, tolerances, and measurement methods. Relevant properties to be discussed include refractive index, dispersion, transmission, homogeneity, striae, stress birefringence. Also cov-ered are production processes and their influences on glass properties, raw glass delivery formats. The course covers specification of lenses and prisms for optical systems according to the international stan-dards ISO 10110 (optical elements) and ISO 12123 (raw optical glass). Finally, availability of optical glasses and restrictions thereof due to technical, economic, and regulatory reasons are covered.

LEARNING OUTCOMESThis course will enable you to:• classify refractive index and dispersion

requirements for optical elements with respect to their feasibility and realization costs in production and discuss relevant inspection methods

• how to specify optical homogeneity for large and small optical elements

• distinguish application cases where normal or high transmission grades are needed

• specify internal quality (bubble and inclusion content, striae and stress birefringence) for lenses and prisms of different sizes

• explain the influence of temperature on optical element properties

• identify critical glass types which are restricted in available size due to glass properties or due to production constraints

INTENDED AUDIENCEOptical system designers, engineers and technicians involved in the use, choosing, and purchasing of optical glass; material management and logistics functions in optics enterprises; developers in com-panies using optical elements.

INSTRUCTORMark Davis received his Ph.D. in geology from Yale University in 1996, focusing on crystallization kinet-ics in silicate glass. Following an additional three years at Yale as a postdoctoral scholar, Mark joined SCHOTT in Duryea, Pennsylvania as a Research Sci-entist, being promoted to Senior Research Scientist in 2006 and to his current position of Senior Principal Scientist in 2014. Leveraging his knowledge of glass from a geologic standpoint, Mark has extended his knowledge base from that of glasses which crystal-lize (i.e. glass-ceramics) to glasses that are inten-tionally designed not to crystallize and are prized due to their optical properties. Work related to the thermal and optical properties of optical glass that Mark has initiated at SCHOTT include high-precision laser interferometry to deduce thermal expansion of mm-sized parts, the response of glasses in the shock environment, and stress-optic measurements of op-tical, chalcogenide, and laser glass. He has over 20 first-authored papers and 11 issued or laid-open pat-ents. He is a fellow of the American Ceramic Society.

Introduction to Modern OpticalDrawings – the ISO 10110 StandardSC863 • Course Level: Introductory • CEU: 0.4 $315 Members • $180 Student Members • $375 Non-Members USD Monday 8:30 am to 12:30 pm

Since the late 1990’s, the optics community has gradually been converting optics drawings from a free-form, notes-based method to a standardized, international pictographic method. In 2013, the United States joined the international community by adopting a version of ISO 10110 as the American National Standard for optics drawings. This new method is a great boon for an industry in need of standardization, but can be very confusing to the uninitiated. In addition, the standard has continued to evolve with new revisions and additions to address the needs of more applications and markets.

This course provides attendees with an introduction to ISO 10110, the international standard for optics drawing notations. The course concentrates on the fundamentals of the drawing layout and how to read the notations required for typical optics, such as glass parameters, radius, wave-front, surface imperfections and roughness. Attendees are also informed about how the American version differs from the current international standard. Practical and useful examples are included throughout.

LEARNING OUTCOMES• read and interpret an optical drawing prepared

to ISO 10110• identify the meaning of the symbology and

specifications of ISO 10110 for materials imperfections, surface form, wedge, surface imperfections, and surface texture

• describe which symbol corresponds to each of the fundamental optical parameters

• compose and interpret an ISO 10110-compliant optical element drawing

INTENDED AUDIENCEThis material is intended for anyone who has a basic understanding of optics, and encounters or gener-ates optical drawings in the course of their work. Those who either design their own optics, work with optical designers, work with optical suppliers, or manufacture optics will find this course valuable.

INSTRUCTORDavid Aikens is President and founder of Savvy Optics Corp., and has been involved in optics draw-ings and specifications for over 30 years. He is the head of the American delegation to ISO TC 172 SC1, and is the chairman of the committee to adopt ISO standards as the American National Standard for optics drawings.

Attendee Registration and Admission PoliciesSPIE, or their officially designated event management, in their sole discretion, reserves the right to accept or decline an individual’s registration for an event. Further, SPIE, or event management, reserves the right to prohibit entry of or to remove any individual whether registered or not, be they attendees, exhibitors, representatives, or vendors, whose conduct is not in keeping with the character and purpose of the event. Without limiting the foregoing, SPIE and event management reserve the right to remove or re-fuse entry to anyone who has registered or gained access under false pretenses, provided false information, or for any other reason whatsoever that they deem is cause un-der the circumstances.

Capture and Use of a Person’s ImageBy registering for an SPIE event, you grant full permission to SPIE to capture, store, use, and/or reproduce your im-age or likeness by any audio and/or visual recording tech-nique and create derivative works of these images and re-cordings in any SPIE media now known or later developed, for any legitimate SPIE marketing or promotional purpose. By registering for an SPIE event, you waive any right to inspect or approve the use of the images or recordings or of any written copy. You also waive any right to royalties or other compensation arising from or related to the use of the images, recordings, or materials. By registering, you release, defend, indemnify and hold harmless SPIE from and against any claims, damages or liability arising from or related to the use of the images, recordings or materials, including but not limited to claims of defamation, invasion of privacy, or rights of publicity or copyright infringement, or any misuse, distortion, blurring, alteration, optical illu-sion or use in composite form that may occur or be pro-duced in taking, processing, reduction or production of the finished product, its publication or distribution.

Code of ConductSPIE is committed to providing a harassment- and dis-crimination-free experience for everyone at our events, an experience that embraces the richness of diversity where participants may exchange ideas, learn, network, and so-cialize in the company of colleagues in an environment of mutual respect.

Family-Friendly PolicyConference Events: All conference technical and network-ing events require a badge for admission. Registered at-tendees may bring children with them if they have been issued a badge. Registration badges for children under 18 are free and available at the SPIE registration desk onsite. Children under 14 years of age must be accompanied by an adult at all times, and guardians are asked to help maintain a professional, disturbance-free conference environment.

Children under 18 are not allowed in the exhibition area during exhi-bition move-in and move-out.

Identification RequirementTo verify registered participants and provide a measure of security, SPIE will ask attendees to present a govern-ment-issued photo identification at registration to collect registration materials. Individuals are not allowed to pick up badges for other attendees. Further, attendees may not have some other person participate in their place at any conference-related activity. Such other individuals will be required to register on their own behalf to participate.

Laser Pointer Safety PolicySPIE supplies tested and safety-approved laser pointers for all conference meeting rooms. For safety reasons, SPIE requests that presenters use provided laser pointers. Use of a personal laser pointer represents the user’s accep-tance of liability for use of a non-SPIE-supplied laser point-er. If you choose to use your own laser pointer, it must be tested to ensure
