None of optical devices is perfect. Each lens has some errors, e.g. tilt, coma, spherical or chromatic aberration. The more lenses are in the optical device the more errors can reveal. All these imperfection accumulates and multiplies during the path through the optical device. It is necessary to know how the light passes through and interacts with each optical element. There are some possibilities of simulation of these defects. One of these methods is ENZ (Extended Nijboer-Zernike) theory which can be set up for...
