title: Design of apochromatic lens with large field and high definition for machine vision.
abstract: Precise machine vision detection for a large object at a finite working distance (WD) requires that the lens has a high resolution for a large field of view (FOV). In this case, the effect of a secondary spectrum on image quality is not negligible. According to the detection requirements, a high resolution apochromatic objective is designed and analyzed. The initial optical structure (IOS) is combined with three segments. Next, the secondary spectrum of the IOS is corrected by replacing glasses using the dispersion vector analysis method based on the Buchdahl dispersion equation. Other aberrations are optimized by the commercial optical design software ZEMAX by properly choosing the optimization function operands. The optimized optical structure (OOS) has an f-number (F/#) of 3.08, a FOV of φ60  mm, a WD of 240 mm, and a modulated transfer function (MTF) of all fields of more than 0.1 at 320  cycles/mm. The design requirements for a nonfluorite material apochromatic objective lens with a large field and high definition for machine vision detection have been achieved.
