Design of optical surfaces conform the hyperbolic Monge-Ampère equation
We present a method for designing freeform optical surfaces for illumination optics. By the laws of reflection, refraction and conservation of energy, a fully nonlinear PDE, the Monge-Ampere equation, is derived for the optical surface. By the edge ray principle a transport boundary condition is obt...
