  • An achromatic lens is a type of lens that is designed to reduce chromatic aberration, which is the tendency of a lens to produce different colors of light in focus at different points. This is accomplished by combining two or more glass elements with different refractive indices. The most common type of achromatic lens is the doublet, which is made up of two elements, one concave and one convex. Achromatic lenses are commonly used in photography, telescope, microscope, and other imaging systems. They are also used in eyeglasses, binoculars and other optical instruments.
    Achromatic lenses are designed to correct for chromatic aberrations by combining two or more glass elements with different refractive indices. The most common type of achromatic lens is a doublet, which consists of one concave element and one convex element. The concave element is made of a low-dispersion glass, while the convex element is made of a higher-dispersion glass. When light passes through these two elements, the different dispersion properties of the glasses cause the different colors of light to come into focus at different distances. This is known as chromatic aberration. By carefully designing the curvatures of the elements and the spacing between them, the lens designer can create a lens that brings all colors of light into focus at the same distance, effectively eliminating chromatic aberration. Achromatic lenses are used in a wide range of applications where sharp and accurate imaging is critical, such as in photography, telescope, microscope, and other imaging systems. They are also used in eyeglasses, binoculars, and other optical instruments. Achromatic lenses are also commonly used in scientific research, for example in telescopes for studying stars, in microscopes for studying cells, in imaging systems for studying materials, and in other areas where precise imaging is necessary. In addition to the doublet lens there are also other types of achromatic lenses available, such as the achromatic triplet lens and the apochromatic lens. These lenses are designed to correct for chromatic aberrations even more effectively than the doublet lens, by using additional elements or specialized glasses. They are generally more expensive than doublet lenses but can offer even better image quality.
  • Normally there exits offset or angle between  Optical axis and mechanic axis of fiber collimator. That causes great insert loss. Collimators can’t be plug and play or rotated in use.
