ABSTRACT:
A spherical lens of graded refractive index distribution comprises a core of uneven refractive index of the shape of a sphere or hemisphere and a clad of the shape of a spherical shell and a rod clad, with the two clads disposed on the periphery of the core. By the combination of the core showing negative aberration characteristic and the spherical-shell type clad and the rod clad both showing positive aberration characteristic, there can be formed a lens of corrected aberration. This lens suits combination or integration with other elements and permits easy manufacture of clads. It also provides effective convergence of beams of light desirable for use in an optical pickup, for example.
