Uses for Glass Aspheric Lenses
As the most commonly used optical material, glass has good optical performance and economic benefits, and there are many types and varieties to choose from, such as borosilicate glass, quartz glass, optical glass, etc.
With proper glass material selection and manufacturing process, glass aspheric lenses can provide high-quality, high-performance imaging for many optical applications.
Uses for IR Aspheric Lenses
The incorporation of aspheric surfaces with varying curvatures in different directions, along with the non-uniform design of the curved surface, brings forth numerous benefits in infrared optics. Leveraging the exceptional high-temperature resistance and thermal stability of single-crystal germanium and single-crystal silicon materials, coupled with their excellent transparency in the infrared spectrum range, our infrared aspheric lenses offer improved imaging quality and expanded infrared observation capabilities.
Uses for Aspheric Mirrors
Noni excels in combining optical properties and processability of aluminum alloy, copper, and phosphor bronze with advantages of aspheric mirrors. These lightweight materials exhibit desirable traits such as good thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance, available for various manufacturing methods.
By utilizing these materials, we can not only produce complex-shaped aspheric mirrors but also reduce the overall weight of optical systems.
Uses for Elliptical Aspheric Mirrors
At Noni, we use materials such as quartz glass or silicon carbide to manufacture elliptical aspheric mirrors that can ensure the stability and reliability of optical performance and meet the needs of demanding optical applications. Due to its special curvature and shape design, the elliptical aspheric mirror has unique optical properties and is widely used in the following fields:
The major difference between spherical and aspherical lenses is the curvature of the lens. Spherical lenses have the same curvature, while aspheric lenses have different curvatures.
Due to the fixed surface curvature of spherical lenses, they only provide the best image quality in certain situations. However,aspheric lenses can be manufactured in a variety of curvatures as needed, so problems such as spherical aberration, distortion, and peripheral astigmatism can be better corrected, making them better adaptable to various imaging needs.
