Gaussian quadrature integration for rms spot size or wavefront error: > Forbes, G. W. (1989). Optical system assessment for design: numerical ray tracing in the Gaussian pupil. Jou…

Great work! Here's some prior art in the (torch) space: https://github.com/vccimaging/DiffOptics A few notes, though paraxial approximations are "dumb", they are very useful tools …

I received my PhD in applied physics and had colleagues, collaborators, and some published work in this (very broad) field. Although I'm familiar with the programs, my advice is no…

> They may use absorbing substrate, or may add a backside coating. Yup, since the optic is planar it can integrate with backend coating processes > Contact image sensors ... No clu…

We (metalenz.com) use Julia extensively in our optical design/simulation/modeling workflows: 1. Design team keeps live sessions during interactive work, otherwise launches on virtu…

Ah, that's too bad, but I can't really blame them. Going from a fully-featured Python codebase they already had in https://github.com/brandondube/prysm and translating into Julia w…

I was mostly referring to the parent comment's suggestion that low level numerical libraries wouldn't benefit from a pure Julia implementation, specifically to the statement that i…

There is a recent effort [1] to provide low-level support for faster operations by transforming user code to take advantage of a compiler's instruction set, memory packing, etc. Th…
