Abstract

The field distribution in the focal region of a high aperture optical system is calculated using an efficient method based on expansion into multipole components. Aberrations in high aperture systems are considered. Combinations of aberrations which form a complete, orthogonal and normalized set over a weighted spherical pupil are evaluated.
