SO-L16 SERIES

Visible-NIR Achromatic Doublet

SO-L16 cemented achromatic doublets are corrected across visible and near-infrared wavelengths using paired crown and flint glass elements. The AB broadband antireflection coating supports multi-wavelength imaging, machine vision, spectroscopy and laser benches operating from 400 to 1100 nm.

Product Overview

Configure Visible-NIR Achromatic Doublet around focal geometry and coating

Each model lists its actual glass pair, total center thickness, individual element thicknesses and the radii of the external and cemented surfaces. These parameters are essential when evaluating chromatic correction, principal-plane position and mechanical envelope.

Choose a model by focal length and diameter first, then confirm the glass pair and full surface prescription if the design requires detailed ray tracing.

Optical behavior

Each model lists its actual glass pair, total center thickness, individual element thicknesses and the radii of the external and cemented surfaces. These parameters are essential when evaluating chromatic correction, principal-plane position and mechanical envelope.

Selection and integration

Choose a model by focal length and diameter first, then confirm the glass pair and full surface prescription if the design requires detailed ray tracing.

Need a different diameter, tolerance or coating?

Custom substrate materials, dimensions, angular tolerances and coating bands can be reviewed for prototype and production quantities.
