  1. apochromatic

    Apochromatic refers to a type of lens that is designed to minimize chromatic aberration, which is the distortion of light due to the varying refractive indices for different wavelengths of light. This is achieved by correcting the lens so that light rays from three different parts of the spectrum meet at the same point. These lenses are often used for imaging purposes in cameras, telescopes, microscopes, and other related applications.
