Introduction to the Optical Transfer Function
by Charles S. Williams and Orville A. Becklund
Published 20 February 1989
This timely publication brings together, in one source, a wealth of information on the optical transfer function. The authors cover fundamental concepts of spatial frequency, the spread function, wave aberration, and the transfer function. They then relate these concepts to optical systems, with discussion of how they are measured and calculated, and their uses. The treatment is practical, and includes many illustrations. This volume is aimed at optical engineers, physicists and electrical engineers.
