Achromatic lenses, also known as cemented doublet lenses, are made by cementing together two lenses of different refractive indices and dispersion rates. Compared to optical systems using a single lens, achromatic lenses provide a clearer image, further enhancing the lens’s optical performance. Achromatic lenses are suitable for various applications such as fluorescence microscopy, image detection, and spectroscopy. Compared to monolithic lenses, achromatic lenses can form smaller light spots.
There are two types of cemented doublet achromatic lenses: positive achromatic lenses and negative achromatic lenses.
