Is it a stupid question to ask if your rays pass through the non-sequential component? To achieve that, you need to set up your entrance and exit ports correctly.

Hi David,

Thanks for your reply, I sure Entrance and Exit ports setting is correct, and the stop position is also before the NSC group(NSC and Physical Optics Propagation | Zemax Community), but the Aperture Type setting is object space NA, is this error related to the aperture type setting, it makes me confused.

Thanks.

Hi @YC.Liu,

I’m not sure. Any chance you can share your file with us?

Take care,

David

There is some documentation on using POP through the non-sequential surfaces. See “The Analyze Tab (sequential ui mode) > Laser and Fibers Group > About Physical Optics Propagation > Propagating Through Non-sequential Surfaces” in the help file.

As an additional question, does anybody know how the POP electric field data is converted to Rays when moving through the port?
