Huygens MTF produces two different results

Hello!


 


I am getting two different results for the exact same optical system by simply changing which field I am looking at when computing the huygen’s mtf. All I did was change Field from “All” to “1” and the MTF for the same field increased when I switched it to “1” and matches the FFT version much closer then when “All” is selected. Why would that be the case? I have 5 fields, one wavelength.

Hello Sandrine,


Okay, it... it went away on its own. i dont know what happened, i swear, all i was doing was switching from all fields to just one of the fields and the mtf was dropping. i closed my zemax last week, opened it this morning, and the results are consistent. i promise i'm not crazy, and yes, i realize thats what a crazy person might say. thanks anyway, i wll keep you posted if i find a gremlin in my computer.
