Wide angle lens for the infrared dedicatory clause

An improvement in a wide angle lens system for use in the infrared frequency band in which said system has inherent chromatic and monochromatic aberrations without corrections:

• the improvement comprising first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth lenses arranged in that order from left to right;
• the first lens is made of potassium bromide and has a left and right side radius of 17.545086 and 13.312300 inches;
• the second, third, fourth and fifth lenses are each made of cesium iodide and have left and right side pairs of radius of (16.358525, 26.276313), (77.852714, -147.328009), (77.710706, -120.597400), (-136.917190, -21.538799) inches respectively;
• the sixth lens is made of potassium iodide and has a left and right side radius of -26.662185 and -68.563895 inches;
• the lenses are constructed and located relative to each other such that center lines of each of the lenses are lined up and the distances traveled in inches along the center line to get from one side of a lens to a next side of a lens starting with the left side of said first lens on to the right side of said sixth lens are 2.841697, 1.291968, 2.395441, 0.955152, 2.917873, 7.462730, 1.750825, 1.042032, 2.487841, 0.133560, and 2.464465;
• and the total effect will be to focus on a surface with the inherent chromatic and monochromatic aberrations effectively corrected from the middle infrared band through the far infrared band.
