doublet

A combination of two lenses usually cemented to each other used to correct chromatic aberration. Typically it consists of a positive crown lens and a negative flint lens. See achromatizing lens; triplet.

The most common type is the achromatic doublet based on two individual lenses, one crown glass lens element and a flint glass lens element, joined together, usually one positive and the other negative, so the aberrations and dispersion effects of one lens are compensated by those of the other 1].
