TECHNICAL NOTES ON THE OPTICAL CONFIGURATION OF VST INCLUDING AN ADC Prepared by : D. Ferruzzi, G. Marra To the attention of : D. Mancini

Introduction

In the study of ADC to be inserted in the optical design of VST, we considered two possible solutions. In one of them the ADC had flat entrance and exit surfaces and in the other one, the external surfaces were curved. In the next sections the two systems are described. It would be necessary to contact Zeiss to know as soon as possible if both solutions are reliable and to have indications about costs of manufacturing and handling.

ADC with entrance and exit curved surfaces

The ADC has curved entrance and exit surfaces and is inserted between the third lens and the filter. The triplet is the same of the last configuration sent to Zeiss, while the rays of curvature and the conics of the mirrors were modified. In Table 1-1 the ADC optical data are reported. In Figure 2-1 the camera, ADC, filter and dewar window layout is reported. In Figures 2-2, 2-3, 2-4 spot diagrams corresponding to the minimum dispersion configuration at zenith, maximum dispersion at 60° and ADC compensation at 60° are shown.

ADC with flat entrance and exit surfaces configuration

This design has an ADC with all flat surfaces. The lenses of the camera were reoptimized together with the mirrors parameters respect to the previous solution. The rays of curvatures were normalized to Din Tables. In Table 3-1 the ADC optical data are reported. In Figure 3-1 the camera, ADC, filter and dewar window layout is reported. In Figures 3-2, 3-3, 3-4 spot diagrams corresponding to the minimum dispersion configuration at zenith, maximum dispersion at 60° and ADC compensation at 60° are shown.
