What Does OMTF Stand For?

OMTF stands for Optical Modulation Transfer Function

The Optical Modulation Transfer Function (OMTF) is a quantitative measure used to characterize the performance of optical systems, particularly in imaging applications. It describes how well an optical system can transfer varying levels of detail from the object to the image, indicating the system's ability to preserve contrast across different spatial frequencies. The OMTF is essential for evaluating image quality and system efficiency in fields such as microscopy, telecommunications, and photography.
