Athermalization is a process used in optical and mechanical engineering to minimize or eliminate the effects of temperature variations on the performance of optical systems. In optical systems, temperature changes can cause expansions or contractions in the materials used, leading to changes in focus, image quality, and overall optical performance. Athermalization involves designing optical components, such as lenses and mirrors, and their housing in a way that offsets the thermal expansion of materials.
