Abstract

See full text

An imaging lens having reduced susceptibility to thermally-induced stress birefringence for imaging an object plane to an image plane; comprising a plurality of lens elements. The lens element that experiences a highest optical power density is fabricated using a glass having a negligible susceptibility to thermal stress birefringence as characterized by the thermal stress birefringence metric. The other lens elements are fabricated using glasses having a negligible or a moderate susceptibility to thermal stress birefringence, at least one of the other lens elements being fabricated using a glass having a moderate susceptibility to thermal stress birefringence.
