Zemax AGF

Format

The AGF file mainly contains a series of glass data in the format:

NM <glass name> <dispersion formula> <MIL> <Nd> <Vd> <Exclude Sub> <status> <melt freq>
GC <Individual Glass Comment>
ED <TCE (-30 to 70)> <TCE (100 to 300)> <density> <dPgF> <Ignore Thermal Exp>
CD <dispersion coefficients 1 - 10>
TD <D0> <D1> <D2> <E0> <E1> <Ltk> <Temp> 
OD <rel cost> <CR> <FR> <SR> <AR> <PR>
LD <min lambda> <max lambda>
IT <lambda> <transmission> <thickness>
IT <lambda> <transmission> <thickness>
... multiple IT lines may follow

Dispersion Formula

In the first line beginning with "NM", dispersion formula employed for the glass is expressed using the respective integer. The coefficients of the given formula are provided in the line beginning with "CD".
