Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to solve global warming, utilization of natural energy is desired, and an optical system for efficiently guiding sunlight to a light transmission path such as a glass rod is required. However, conventionally used focusing optics are not sufficient. We have found the basic principle that a Fresnel lens should have to be efficient even when the sun is incident obliquely.
We confirm the correctness of this principle in detail by theoretical study and numerical design. Furthermore, we derive the basic design principle of the both-side blazed Fresnel lens for general case. We also clarified the unavoidable aberration generation mechanism of one-sided blazed Fresnel lens and formulated it quantitatively.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

従来に比べて太陽光が斜めに入射しても効率よくガラスロッドなどの光伝送路に集光できるため、自然エネルギー利用効率をげることができ、地球温暖化の解決への一助となる。
また、一般的なブレーズ型フレネルレンズの収差発生機構を明確にしたことは、フレネルレンズやDOE(Diffractive Optical Element)の設計に有用である。特に、高精細な光学系にDOEを用いるときの適用限界を導いたことは、このような光学系開発に有用な指針を与える。
