Microscope objective lens
View Patent ↗A microscope objective lens has an aspheric-surface lens, and a first lens nearest to an object side is a negative lens. It is desirable that at least any one surface of the first lens nearest to the object side is an aspheric surface. Moreover, it is desirable that the microscope objective lens satisfies the following conditional expression (1) −20 <f 1 /f <−0.1 (1) where, f 1 denotes a focal length of the first lens nearest to the object side, and f denotes a focal length of the overall microscope objective lens system.
1. A microscope objective lens comprising:
an aspheric-surface lens, wherein
a first lens nearest to an object side is a negative lens, wherein
a lens which forms the microscope objective lens is made of at least two types of glass, and
a refractive index of the lens for a d-line is not more than 1.7.
2. The microscope objective lens according to claim 1 , wherein
the first lens is a negative single lens, and each of lenses included in the microscope objective lens is single lens.
3. The microscope objective lens according to claim 1 , wherein at least any one surface of the first lens nearest to the object side is an aspheric surface.
4. The microscope objective lens according to claim 1 , wherein the microscope objective lens satisfies the following conditional expression (1)
−20< f 1 /f<− 0.1 (1)
where,
f 1 denotes a focal length of the first lens nearest to the object side, and
f denotes a focal length of the overall microscope objective lens system.
5. The microscope objective lens according to claim 1 , wherein the microscope objective lens satisfies the following conditional expression (2)
0.2 mm< WD< 3.0 mm (2)
where,
WD denotes a distance from a front end of the microscope objective lens up to an object.
6. The microscope objective lens according to claim 1 , wherein the microscope objective lens includes three to six single lenses.
7. The microscope objective lens according to claim 1 , wherein
the microscope objective lens is accommodated in a microscope objective lens unit, and
the microscope objective lens unit has a detaching portion which is detachable from an observation apparatus.
8. A microscope objective lens comprising:
an aspheric-surface lens, wherein
a first lens nearest to an object side is a negative lens, wherein a parfocalizing distance PD of the microscope objective lens is calculated by the following expression (3)
PD= 45+15 m (3)
where,
m is −1, 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4.
