G Lens
A G-lens, or gradient-index lens, is an optical element whose refractive index varies gradually inside the material rather than remaining constant as in a conventional lens. The variation is usually radial, from the center toward the edge, causing light to follow a continuously curved path within the lens instead of bending abruptly at the surface.
