Abstract
A theoretical analysis of properties of superachromatic air-spaced triplets
composed of thin lenses is described in this paper. An interesting result is
shown in that the superachromatic air-spaced triplet cannot simultaneously
correct field curvature and transverse and longitudinal chromatic aberration.
The formulas for the calculation of parameters of an air-spaced triplet are
derived and the procedure for the calculation of the shape of individual lenses
of the triplet is described using the third-order aberration theory. The
application of the described analysis is presented in an example of the design
of a superachromatic triplet.
