Nonimaging optics is a field devoted to the design of optical components for applications such as solar concentration or illumination. In this field, many different techniques have been used to produce optical devices, including the use of reflective and refractive components or inverse engineering techniques. However, many of these optical components are based on translational symmetries, rotational symmetries, or free-form surfaces. We study a new family of nonimaging concentrators called elliptical concentrators. This new family of concentrators provides new capabilities and can have different configurations, either homofocal or nonhomofocal. Translational and rotational concentrators can be considered as particular cases of elliptical concentrators.
非成像光学是一个致力于设计用于太阳能聚光或照明等应用的光学元件的领域。在这个领域中，已经使用了许多不同的技术来制造光学器件，包括使用反射和折射元件或逆向工程技术。然而，这些光学元件中的许多都是基于平移对称性、旋转对称性或自由曲面的。我们研究了一种称为椭圆聚光器的新型非成像聚光器系列。这个新的聚光器系列提供了新的功能，并且可以有不同的配置，无论是同焦点的还是非同焦点的。平移和旋转聚光器可以被视为椭圆聚光器的特殊情况。
