Designing a Flood Light with Zemax Part Designer This article will detail the construction and optimization of an LED flood light using the Zemax Part Designer Object. Several new features in Zemax Release 13 with regards to ZPD will also be discussed. Authored by: Kevin Ting Published on: February 3, 2013 INTRODUCTION The LED Flood light designed in this article is similar to the model laid out in the mechanical drawing below. The top of the light will consist of 9 reflector surfaces cut into the top surface and arranged in a ring about a central reflector surface. A light source (which will be modeled as a point source) will be placed within each of the 9 reflectors. The source array will utilize the flood light to direct light and illuminate an 80 mm x 80 mm square located a variable distance from the flood light. This surface will be modeled by an absorbing detector rectangle within Zemax. Designing a Flood Light with Zemax Part Designer A variety of tools may be utilized to create the casing of the flood light. The casing does not possess any optical properties aside from its reflective material and will not be optimized in Zemax. The reflector surfaces built into the top of the casing, however, are constructed with various line segments and arc segments, whose shapes can be optimized to provide the desired performance. The main criteria used in this optimization will be maximum flux to the detector and uniformity of the light pattern on the detector. To accomplish this, we will optimize the positioning of the light source within each reflector and the radius of curvature of the reflector. PART I: Creating the Part. Note: the Completed part is included within the .ZAR file attached to this tutorial The Zemax Part Designer (ZPD) provided with Zemax 13 has introduced several useful new features from its release in Zemax 12. The first of these additions is the ability to overlay a
