1338877 University of Rochester; Jannick Rolland 1338898 University of North Carolina at Charlotte; Angela Davies The proposed Center for Freeform Optics (CeFO) aims to advance research and education on the science, engineering and applications of freeform optics through a dedicated, continuing industrial partnership. The research efforts will be anchored by the University of Rochester (UR) as the lead institution, partnered with the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNCC). The proposed Center (CeFO) constitutes a unique research environment combining the strengths of two top-tier research universities with the experiences, insights, and needs of international industrial talent specialized in building systems supporting the manufacturing, integration, and implementation of advanced optical systems. CeFO will provide vertical integration of mathematics, optics, optical science, materials science, optomechanics, precision optical manufacturing and testing, and instrument design in order to transform the optics industry in the 21st century. Optical systems with freeform surfaces will usher in the next generation of innovation in sensing, imaging, visualization and diagnostic instrumentation by directing light in not 1-D, but 3-D. Novel designs with 3-D light paths will allow compact optical systems to replace the current in-line designs (packaged by flat fold mirrors) using freeform optics. Applications are emerging that require innovative surface geometries with tight form-accuracy to increase imaging and sensing capabilities and overall optical performance. The participating universities in CeFO are dedicated to the recruitment and retention of female and students from under-represented groups. The aggressive recruitment of students from under-represented groups is one of the Center's top priorities. The primary goal of active student involvement in the Center's research activities is to accelerate the understanding of this new horizon in optical technology by advancing research and education on the engineering and science of freeform optics. Students will work directly with Center industrial members to communicate and transfer key enabling technologies including design, fabrication, assembly, testing, and integration

罗切斯特大学; Jannick Rolland北卡罗来纳州大学夏洛特; Angela Davies拟议中的自由曲面光学中心（CeFO）旨在通过一个专门的、持续的工业合作伙伴关系，推进自由曲面光学的科学、工程和应用方面的研究和教育。研究工作将由罗切斯特大学作为牵头机构，与夏洛特的北卡罗来纳州大学合作。拟议的中心（CeFO）构成了一个独特的研究环境，结合了两所顶级研究型大学的优势，以及专门从事支持先进光学系统制造，集成和实施的国际工业人才的经验，见解和需求。CeFO将提供数学、光学、光学科学、材料科学、光学机械、精密光学制造和测试以及仪器设计的垂直整合，以改变世纪的光学行业。具有自由曲面的光学系统将引领传感、成像、可视化和诊断仪器的下一代创新，它将引导光线进入3D而不是1D。具有3-D光路的新颖设计将允许紧凑的光学系统取代当前使用自由形式光学的在线设计（由平坦折叠镜封装）。新出现的应用需要具有严格形状精度的创新表面几何形状，以提高成像和传感能力以及整体光学性能。参加该方案的大学致力于招收和留住来自代表性不足群体的女生和学生。积极招收代表性不足群体的学生是该中心的首要任务之一。学生积极参与中心研究活动的主要目标是通过推进自由光学工程和科学的研究和教育，加速对光学技术新视野的理解。学生将直接与中心工业成员合作，交流和转让关键技术，包括设计，制造，组装，测试和集成
