The unique feature of the ReSTOR ® lens is the apodized diffractive optics (Figure 2). The concept of apodization means a gradual transition of optical properties from the center of a lens to the edge. In this case there are a series of twelve diffractive rings over the central 3.6 millimeters of the lens optic.
What is apodization in FTIR?
The term apodization is used frequently in publications on Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) signal processing. An example of apodization is the use of the Hann window in the fast Fourier transform analyzer to smooth the discontinuities at the beginning and end of the sampled time record.
