Achromatic Cemented Cylindrical Lens An achromatic cylindrical lens can minimize chromatic aberration, so it can be used to focus a single direction of a multi-color light beam. Unlike a spherical lens that produces a point-focusing spot, an achromatic cylindrical lens can ...
A cylindrical optical lens is typically used to focus, condense or expand incoming light. A cylindrical optical lens has one cylindrical surface, causing light to be focussed in a single dimension or axis. It can also be used to expand the output of a laser diode into a ...
The double convex lens/double convex mirror is symmetrical across both its horizontal and vertical axis. Each of the lens\'s two faces can be thought of as originally being part of a sphere. The fact that a double convex lens/mirror is thicker across its middle is an indicator ...
