Abstract:
This paper considers the computational procedures and analyzes the correction capabilities of optical systems consisting of two or three elements made of inhomogeneous materials with radial distribution of the refractive index. The article presents the schemes and design parameters of the systems that are free from all monochromatic aberrations of the third order, as well as the third and fifth orders. The paper presents the field characteristics, showing that the systems of all the considered types can be used as high-resolution monochromatic lenses.
