By combining two lenses with different refractive index wavelength dispersion into a single lens, chromatic aberration and spherical aberration can be reduced compared to a single spherical lens.
It can be used as a telescope objective lens or a collimating lens for laser experiments.
Optimization by lens design results in little change in focal length across the visible range.
Since not only chromatic aberration but also spherical aberration are well corrected, it is ideal as a collimating lens for laser.
It is corrected not only for aberrations of the on-axis object point, but also for off-axis coma and astigmatism.
It can be used for imaging systems such as telescope objective lenses and microscope imaging lenses.
It can be selected according to your specifications from a wide range of variations, subdivided by outer diameter size and focal length.
Air gap type condensing lens (NYTL/NYDL) for laser processing is also available.
* Use an achromatic lens when you want to focus an image at infinity or when you want to use a point light source that is parallel to the image.
Sufficient optical performance cannot be obtained when the camera is used for close-range imaging.
* The chromatic lens has an orientation that allows parallel light to enter the lens.
* This function allows parallel light to enter from the side of the face with a small radius of curvature (the face pointed to by the arrow).
* When parallel light is incident from the opposite side, chromatic aberration and spherical aberration occur, and the condensing spot becomes larger.
Chromatic aberration may increase when the camera is used at wavelengths other than visible light.
