Abstract:
Method of temperature compensating a focusing system in which a temperature of a thermal lens compensation plate is regulated based on an optical absorption of the thermal lens compensation plate with optical absorption being determined based at least in part on an expected end-of-lifetime value for focus lens optical absorption. A value representative of cumulative time in use of the focusing systems is determined and the temperature of the thermal lens compensation plate is increased to a temperature based at least in part on said cumulative time in use.
