Abstract
It is well known and described in any geometrical optics textbook that the axial as well as the magnification chromatic aberration may be corrected in a system formed by a pair of thin lenses separated by a certain distance, using only one type of glass. However, it is not so well known that these aberrations may be also corrected in a single thick lens.
