Calculation and Evaluation of Narcissus For
Calculation and Evaluation of Narcissus For
In infrared optical systems, the narcissus effect for diffractive surfaces should be calculated with specific
diffraction orders based on the diffraction efficiency. It is shown in this work that the diffraction order of
maximum diffraction efficiency varies with the change of the incident angle and wavelength of the back-
ward-traced narcissus flux. Meanwhile, yni, which is the paraxial evaluation criterion of narcissus in-
tensity for a refractive surface, is modified considering diffraction when a ray passes through diffractive
surfaces, and a practical example has been given. The analysis can be used to calculate and control the
narcissus intensity in infrared optical systems with diffractive surfaces. © 2011 Optical Society of
