Wide Angle Lenses with Aspheric Correcting Surfaces

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Refracting elements having aspheric correcting surfaces near the center of curvature are analyzed. As in the case of the Schmidt reflector, such systems can have a wide aperture and a wide field of view; in addition, they are free from obstructing surfaces. Being uncorrected for dispersion, however, the refracting systems are restricted to nearly monochromatic radiation. Typical forms of the correcting surfaces have been determined, both by third-order theory and by numerical integration of exact equations.
