Abstract
The design, assembly, and testing details of an objective lens used to image ar array of 4096 beams are discussed. The main characteristics of the lens are a 15-mm focal length, a speed of f/1.5, diffraction-li mited quality, telecentricity, f-sin(theta) mapping, an external stop, and a simplicity of fabrication.
