Analytic formulas of spot diagrams are derived for the system by analytically following a ray-tracing formalism. With these formulas, coma, spherical aberration, and resultant aberration are discussed. To make the theory practical, we determine the aberration coefficients numerically, rather than analytically, with the aid of ray tracing that takes into account the angular distribution of rays originating from a given light source. A merit function is defined so as to represent closely the variance of the spots formed when an infinite number of rays are traced and to take into account the dimensions of the source and the last optical element. The theory is also applicable to mirror-grating or mirror systems.展开更多
