Introduction to CODE V
September 16-20, 2013
For any engineer or designer who wants to learn to use CODE V to design or evaluate image-forming optical systems.
Advanced Topics in CODE V
September 23-27, 2013
For anyone who uses CODE V now and wishes to use it more effectively or who wishes to learn more about the various advanced features of CODE V.
 This course covers the basics of modeling, analyzing, optimizing, and tolerancing image-forming optical systems using CODE V, including hands-on workshops. It assumes familiarity with optics concepts and terminology. This course will be taught using CODE V version 10.5. Both new and part-time users can benefit from this course.
The typical agenda for this course is as follows:
Monday
- Getting started: A design study
Tuesday
Wednesday
- Optimization of lens performance
- Reflective optical systems
Thursday
- Tolerancing an optical system
- Zoom and multi-configuration systems
Friday
- Non-spherical surfaces
- Afocal systems
- Macros and command mode
 This short course will give current users of CODE V an opportunity to learn about and practice using a number of advanced topics and specialized techniques, including hands-on workshops. You will learn how to solve current problems more effectively and discover new applications for CODE V in your work. This seminar does not teach the basics of CODE V, but rather the usage of advanced features in CODE V. It assumes the attendees have a reasonable familiarity with CODE V. Attendees should already know how to enter lenses in CODE V, how to perform various performance analyses, and how to do tolerancing in CODE V.
The agenda for this course is as follows:
Monday
- Diffraction analysis
- Environmental analysis of optical systems
- Diffractive properties
Tuesday
- Advanced optimization techniques
- Interferograms and the Alignment option
Wednesday
- Macro-PLUS™ and COM programming
Thursday
- Polarization analysis
- Non-sequential surfaces
- User-defined features
Friday
- Tolerancing tools and techniques
- Beam Propagation
