Abstract

The design, assembly, and testing details of an objective lens used to image an array of 4096 beams are discussed. The main characteristics of the lens are a 15-mm focal length, a speed of f/1.5, diffraction-limited quality, telecentricity, f-sin(θ) mapping, an external stop, and a simplicity of fabrication.
