Abstract:

Mounting gaps present when lenses are being matched with cells and when lens units are being matched with the objective barrel cause decentering of the objective’s optical system. This decentering leads to an increase in the monochromatic and chromatic aberrations of the produced image. This study considers the calculation of the probable values of mounting gaps and the displacements of components in the gaps. Further, centering methods are proposed for lenses in the gaps of the cells and for lens components of objectives in the poker-chip stacking configuration.
