3. Image motion due to optical element motion
• Tilt and decenter of optical components (lenses, mirrors, prisms) will cause motion of the image– Element drift causes pointing instability
•Affects boresight, alignment of co-pointed optical systems•Degrades performance for spectrographs
– Element vibration causes image jitter•Long exposures are blurred•Limit performance of laser projectors
Small motions, entire field shifts (all image points move the same)
Image shift has same effect as change of line of sight direction
(defined as where the system is looking)
J. H. Burge, “An easy way to relate optical element motion to system pointing stability,” in Current Developments in Lens Design and Optical Engineering VII, Proc. SPIE 6288 (2006).

Lens decenter
• All image points move together• Image motion is magnified

Effect for lens tilt
• Can use full principal plane relationships• Lens tilt often causes more aberrations than image motion

What happens when an optical element is moved?
To see image motion, follow the central ray
Generally, it changes in position and angle

The Optical Invariant
The stop is not special. Any two independent rays can be used for this. The optical invariant will be maintained through the system

Stationary point for finite conjugates
• Rotate about C, define system using principal planes

''stationary
fCP PP

For a thin lens, PP’ = 0, and the stationary point occurs at CP = 0, rotating about the principal points.
For an object at infinity, d’ = f , so CPstationary = -PP’, which means that the stationary point occurs at the rear principal point. This principle is used for finding the principal point with a nodal slide1.
The stationary point depends not only on the optical system, but also on the object and image positions.
A real biconvex “thick lens” operating at 1:1 conjugates has its stationary point in the middle. (CP = -0.5 PP’ and d’ = 2f .)

Afocal systems
• For system with object or image at infinity, effect of element motion is tilt in the light.
• Simply use the relationship from the optical invariant:
Where

D0 is the diameter of the collimated beam
