PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an objective lens for a microscope that is well corrected for aberrations and features a wide field of view and large numerical aperture.SOLUTION: An objective lens 11 for a microscope comprises, in order from the object side, a first lens group G1 having positive refractive power, a second lens group G2 having positive refractive power, and a third lens group G3 having negative refractive power. The objective lens 11 satisfies the following conditional expressions: 0.8≤NA≤1.5 ...(1), 1000≤FN/|β|/ε≤10000 ...(2), 1.7≤Φ/2/h/NA≤4 ...(3), where NA represents a numerical aperture of the objective lens 11, FN represents a field number of the objective lens 11, β represents a magnification of the objective lens 11, ε represents an on-axis Airy disk diameter of the objective lens 11 for the d-ray, Φrepresents a maximum effective diameter of lenses constituting the objective lens 11, and hrepresents a radius of an exit pupil of the objective lens 11.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 |
