Folks,

Could anyone recommend some practical books on optomechanical design?  I'm mostly a circuit and software designer.  I have done a moderate amount of general mechanical design too.  For my current project, I need to make a relatively small optical measurement system, and I have a principal design for it.  But in this design all component (lenses, filters, mirrors) are "floating in the air".  I need to make mechanical mounting hardware that will actually hold them.  Is there a good book that provides reference designs for lens, filter, mirror holders, etc?

Any references, suggestion, insight are appreciated!

"Handbook of Optomechanical Engineering" by Aness Ahmad is a good reference and is readily available. Harold

reconvolution,

   Look up Yoder.  He writes books on Opto-mechanical design.                JHG

S P I E course notes by Dan Vukobratovich is also a very good source for such information. ( or the course itself)

Writings by S. T Smith and D.G. Chetwynd  could also be usefull 字串6
