Abstract

The disclosure relates to a device for mounting two spherical optical components. The device includes a first holder, having a receptacle for a first optical element with a first spherical convex face with a first radius, and a second holder, having a receptacle for a second optical element with a second spherical optical concave face with a second radius. At least one of the holders has a supporting face with a third radius, and the first holder can be supported on the second holder such that the radii have a common center point when the first optical element is held in the first holder and the second optical element is held in the second holder.
