Abstract

The use of computer aided design (CAD) techniques in micro-optics is suggested in an effort to make the development of optics similar to the development of integrated VLSI electronics. The numerical simulation of integrated micro-optic systems is described as one part of a CAD system. Wave-optical and ray tracing approaches can be used for the analysis. Results are shown for the simulation of an integrated imaging system.
