Abstract
A lens system includes a lens, a grating and a non-periodic phase structure. The lens system is a-thermalised by a compensation of the temperature-dependence of the spherical aberration of the lens by the temperature-dependence of the spherical aberration of the non-periodic phase structure and the grating. The lens system is also a-spherochromatised by a compensation of the wavelength-dependence of the spherical aberration of the grating by the wavelength-dependence of the spherical aberration of the non-periodic phase structure.
