Abstract
Using the previously developed optimization method for an extended light source [Byzov EV, Kravchenko SV, Moiseev MA, Bezus EA, Doskolovich LL. Optimization method for designing double-surface refractive optical elements for an extended light source. Opt Express 2020; 28(17): 24431-24443. DOI: 10.1364/OE.400609], we designed a compact refractive optical element (the ratio of the element height to the light source size being 1.55) providing a uniform illuminance distribution in a shifted rectangular region. An application of the optimization method for calculating the so-called TIR-elements, exploiting the phenomenon of the total internal reflection of rays, is considered. For an extended light source, compact TIR-elements with freeform exit surfaces that generate uniform illuminance distributions in a rectangular region are designed. The results of the work show promise for a wide class of problems of designing compact optical elements for light-emitting diodes.
