Abstract
An achromatic, telecentric f-theta scan lens optical system for a raster output scanner has a positive crown glass lens element, a negative flint lens element and a concave mirror. The refractive indices of the positive crown glass lens element and the negative flint lens element are sufficiently different to achieve achromatization of a light beam by the two lens elements. The positive crown glass lens element, the negative flint lens element and the concave mirror form a telecentric optical system.
