Optical Design and Simulation

Focus of the group is the classical optical design of imaging and illumination systems, as well as ray-based and wave-optical system simulations.

Main research targets are the development of novel tools for simulation and optimization and the design of innovative complex optical systems for industrial or medical purposes. Current research topics are:

Design and fabrication of 3D printed micro-optics
