Hi out there
I don't know if this is the right newsgroup but my outlook came up with this
one as he most probable to have the solution to my next problem
I'm designing with an group of students an zoom-lens. And we are trying to
simulate one in Mathematica using the optics extension, no problem yet.
But after the moment we create new forms of glass like LaK8 or BaF N6. The
program gives an series of problems. Wich I can't figure out. I think that
these new materials aren't recognised as materials. If anyone can help
please.
