Abstract
We study the propagation of wavefronts refracted through separated doublet lenses (SDL), considering a plane wavefront propagating parallel to the optical axis. We provide formulas for the zero-distance phase front refracted through SDL by using Huygens’s principle. Additionally, we obtain formulae to represent the shape of refracted wavefronts propagated at arbitrary distances along the optical axis, as a function of all parameters involved in the process of refraction. Finally, some examples for commercial SDL showing the evolution of the wavefronts arbitrary distances are presented, assuming different wavelengths for the refractive indices of the lenses, displaying dispersion effects produced through SDL.
