To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For a simple positive lens the focal length is shorter for blue than for red light. Like spherical aberration, chromatic aberration is eliminated by making a lens of two separate lenses, one positive and one negative, placed together. The positive lens is made of a crown glass and the nega- tive lens of flint. The fundamental characteristic of flint glass is that the index of refraction varies much more for the different colors than is the case with the crown. The negative flint lens is so desi...gned that its variation of focal length with color, which is in the opposite sense to that of the crown, is sufficient to compensate for the varia- tions in the crown lens. But since the flint glass is used the negative lens does not neutralize the convergent effect of the crown component. The two lenses, together, therefore constitute a convergent lens with the chromatic aberration eliminated. It is the usual practice to make the two adjacent surfaces of the components of the same curvature so that they may be cemented together with Canada balsam, a transparent cement.
