Much remains to do to expand its application to phytopathology, which would be in particular quite useful to improve crop growth monitoring in countries like Mali. An optical multimodal system for plant samples has been developed to improve the characterization of leaf disease symptoms, provide information on their effects, and avoid their spread. Potentially inexpensive components (laser, lens, turntables camera and sample, filter, lens, camera and computer) have been selected, assembled and aligned on an optical table into a multimodal system operating in transmission, reflection, diffusion and fluorescence. The illumination and observation angles can be adjusted to optimize viewing conditions in the four modes. This scientific contribution has been an initiation into the design and implementation of an optical instrument. Initial results are shown and will now be extended in cooperation with agronomic laboratories in African countries for tests on specific plant diseases in relation with prevailing climate conditions.展开更多

This is followed by some discussions on the necessity of total design that takes all the elements into account from its light source to the final image plane. Methods are given to simulate rays from a bending magnet and an undulator, surface figure errors, and thermal deformations. Some examples are given for an undulator beamline and an EUVL optical system, together with tolerance estimates of the figure error and thermal deformation.展开更多
