Abstract

A diffraction limited, f/6.0, 71.0 mm focal length telecentric scan lens which is color-corrected for 780 nm, 830 nm and 890 nm wavelengths. The lens includes, in succession from a side of incident light: PA0 a first negative meniscus lens element, concave toward the incident light side; PA0 a second positive meniscus lens element, concave toward the incident light side; PA0 a first plano-convex lens element, convex away from the incident light side; PA0 a second plano-convex lens element, convex toward the incident light side; PA0 a first cemented doublet including bi-concave and plano-convex lens elements, the cemented surface convex toward the incident light side; and PA0 a second cemented doublet including plano-concave and plano-convex lens elements, the cemented surface convex toward the incident light side.
