Spherical lens technology principle

Basic structure and optical properties

Spherical lenses refer to optical components with spherical surfaces on the front and back surfaces or a spherical surface plus a flat surface, and their radius of curvature remains constant. According to the different surface shapes, they can be divided into:

  1. Convex lens type: the center thickness is greater than the edge thickness
  2. Biconvex lens: both sides are convex
  3. Planoconvex lens: one side is flat and the other side is convex
  4. Convex lens (meniscus convex lens): the radius of curvature of the convex surface is smaller than the concave surface
  5. Concave lens type: the center thickness is smaller than the edge thickness
  6. Biconcave lens: both sides are concave
  7. Planoconcave lens: one side is flat and the other side is concave
  8. Convexconcave lens (meniscus concave lens): the radius of curvature of the concave surface is greater than the convex surface

Lens type Optical power Aberration characteristics Typical applications

  1. Biconvex lens Positive Spherical aberration is obvious Imaging system, focusing system
  2. Planoconvex lens Positive Spherical aberration is small Collimation system, projection system
  3. Meniscus lens Can be positive or negative Astigmatism correction Complex optical system correction
  4. Achromatic cemented lens Customizable Chromatic aberration correction Precision imaging system

Technical features of aspheric lenses

Aberration correction capability: By adjusting the aspheric coefficient and the surface constant, the spherical aberration generated by the spherical lens can be eliminated
System simplification: A single aspheric lens can replace the combination of multiple spherical lenses to reduce the system volume and weight
Optical performance improvement: In the focusing and collimation system, it can maintain better wavefront quality
