Iso 10110

ISO 10110 provides standards for optical drawings and specifications. It addresses topics such as material imperfections, surface form and centering tolerances, surface textures, and coatings. The standard uses specific symbols and notation systems to indicate information like stress birefringence levels, bubble inclusion properties, surface imperfection tolerances, and coating data on optical drawings in a consistent manner. It is one of over 200 ISO optical standards that cover areas such as materials, testing, devices, and vocabulary to help standardize the optical industry.

Introduction to ISO 10110

Preparation of drawings for optical elements and systems

and a few words about other optical standards


Parts of ISO 10110
1. General – Differences between optical and mechanical drawings
2. Material imperfections – Stress birefringence – 0/
3. Material imperfections – Bubbles and inclusions – 1/
4. Material imperfections – Inhomogeneity and striae – 2/
5. Surface form tolerances – 3/
6. Centering tolerances – 4/
7. Surface imperfection tolerances – 5/
8. Surface texture
9. Surface treatment and coating
10. Table representing data of a lens element
11. Non-toleranced data
12. Aspheric surfaces
13. Laser irradiation damage threshold
Simple optical element drawing
Part 2
Material imperfections – Stress birefringence
Indication in drawing – 0/X where X is the max. birefringence in nm/cm

OPD due to stress birefringence = a*σ*K where

a = sample path length in cm

σ = residual stress in N/mm

K = difference in photoelastic constants in 10-7 mm/N

A retardation > 20 nm/cm corresponds to a “coarse” anneal

A retardation of < 10 nm/cm is referred to as “fine” anneal


Part 3
Imperfections – Bubbles and inclusions
Indication in drawing – 1/NxA where
N is the number of allowed bubbles or inclusions
A is the length of the side of a square in units of mm
(Thus A^2 is the area the bubble or inclusion obscures)
The obscured area may be sub-divided into smaller bubbles
provided the obscured area is no larger than that
designated. Table shows an example
A typical designation might be 1/3x.1
The same system of designation is used for surface defects in
Part 7
Part 4
Imperfections – Inhomogeneity and striae
Indication in drawing – 2/A;B where
A is the class number for inhomogeneity
B is the class for striae
Part 5
Surface form tolerances
Indication in drawing – 3/A(B/C)
where A is the maximum spherical sag error from test plate
or a dash (-) where the radius tolerance is a dimension
B is the p-v maximum irregularity
C is the maximum rationally symmetric p-v figure error
The units are fringes (or fringe spacings)
There is a provision for RMS specification in fringes
Part 6
Centring tolerances
Indication in drawing – 4/α
where α is the angle between the datum and surface

The indication is always the same for each surface but the method
of indicating the datum follows mechanical drawing practice
A polished surface can be a datum and is often the best choice of
datum
Part 7
Surface imperfection tolerances
Indication in drawing – 5/NxA
Where N is the number of allowed imperfections
A is the length of the side of a square in mm
so NxA^2 is the total area obscured by imperfections
Coating imperfections are preceded by a C
Long scratches by an L
Edge chips by an E
Sub-division is permissible the same as with bubbles and inclusions
Example – 5/NxA; CN’xA’; LN”xA”, EA’’’
Part 8
Surface texture
Indication on drawing -

Type of measurement and


Type of texture
Magnitude
Scan length

Type of texture – G for ground or matt, P for polished


Type of measurement – Rq, RMS or PSD (Power spectral density)
Scan length and increment – minimum resolution and scan distance
Part 9
Surface treatment and coating

Indication on drawing - λ for optical thin film coatings

Symbol touches surface or extension line from surface affected


Draw a leader from symbol to box containing coating specification
ISO 9211 Optical coatings explains coating specifications
Unless otherwise stated wavelength is assumed 546.07 nm
Edge blackening or protective coating indicated by thick “chain” line
(line type J, ISO 128) adjacent to the applicable surface
Part 10
Table representing data of a lens element

• Shows the simple element drawing shown at beginning


• Table 1 is useful check list to see if drawing is complete
• Also a quick summary of the symbols used in optical drawings
• Several examples of lens element drawings
Part 11
Non-toleranced data
Part 12
Aspheric surfaces
• Just the sag formulas in most lens design software
• One comment on Zernike polynomials
– The standard uses the FRINGE monomial p-v ordering
– I think this is short sighted
You should use double indices as in α i
j

– Where I is the power of the radial parameter, and
– j is the angular order
Part 13
Laser irradiation damage threshold
• Here to let you know this part exists
• Has commercial use for lasers used in processing materials
• These days commercial lasers powerful enough to damage coatings
• Just looked at ISO 10110
• There are over 200 ISO optical standards dealing with
– Coatings
– Environmental tests
– Microscopes, telescopes, endoscopes and ophthalmics
– Laser devices
– Optical materials and glasses
– Vocabulary and definitions
• More are being added all the time
• Also there is a whole body of Mechanical standards
– TR 5460 is great on GDT
• The US participates in the standards writing
• The standards are copywritten material
– Proceeds from their purchase supports standards writing efforts
