achromat

Japanese: achromat
achromat

...A lens with chromatic aberration corrected. It is made by combining two or more lenses with different refractive indices and light dispersion (Abbe number). A lens with chromatic aberration corrected for two monochromatic lights is called an achromat, and objective lenses for telescopes and binoculars made by bonding two lenses together are widely used. In this case, the F line (wavelength 486.1 nm, blue) and C line (656.3 nm, red) of the Fraunhofer line are usually chosen as the monochromatic light. The condition for the composite focal length of a lens made by bonding two lenses together for two monochromatic lights of two wavelengths to be equal, i.e., for the horizontal chromatic aberration to be zero, is approximately given by f 1 / f 2 = -ν 21 (at this time, the vertical chromatic aberration is also eliminated at the same time). ...

…色収差が補正されたレンズ。屈折率および光の分散(アッベ数)の異なる2枚以上のレンズを組み合わせて作る。二つの単色光に対して色収差を補正したものをアクロマートachromatといい,望遠鏡や双眼鏡の対物レンズでは2枚のレンズをはり合わせて作られたものが広く用いられている。この場合,単色光としてはフラウンホーファー線のF線(波長486.1nm,青),C線(656.3nm,赤)を選ぶのが一般である。二つの波長の単色光に対して2枚のレンズをはり合わせたはり合せレンズの合成焦点距離が等しい,すなわち横の色収差が0となる条件は,近似的にf1/f2=-ν21で与えられる(このとき縦の色収差も同時に除去される)。…
