Hello,
I am relatively new in Zemax have an issue with defining or creating new 3D objects in Zemax. I have read the relevant articles in Zemax Knowledge base, however, can’t find a plausible explanation to my question.
What I actually need is to define a UDO (User defined object) by supplying a set of x y and z coordinates (or a parametric equation with boundaries) in order to perform a stray light analysis in non-sequential mode.
The reason why I want to define it inside of Zemax instead of importing a CAD file is that I want to use Merit function to optimize the dimensions of this predefined object. The object supposed to be a light guide and should reflect off the maximum possible rays of its surface with a total internal reflection so that I can detect them by using a detector polar. In the case of imported CAD objects, the Merit function cannot optimize its dimensions as far as I can experience.
