Spherical Lenses vs. Aspheric Lenses

This article is a comprehensive comparison between spherical lenses and aspheric lenses, where the advantages of both lens categories are listed and evaluated.

Optical Basics: The Nature of Light and Optical Elements

This article aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of essential Optical Basics, ranging from the nature of light (including wavelength, the electromagnetic spectrum, phase and amplitude, the wave-particle duality of light, to reflection, refraction, birefringence, and interference) to the operation principle of optical elements.

Understanding Optical Specifications-Geometric Specifications

A guide that helps understand the glossaries of optical specifications including thickness diameter tolerance, angle tolerance, center error, radius of curvature, clear aperture, parallelism, etc.

Understanding Optical Specifications: Surface Specifications

This article offers a simple but thorough explanation of surface specifications, which is an essential subset of optical specifications and which include Surface Quality, Surface Flatness, Surface Roughness, Power, Irregularity, and Fracture/Chip. This knowledge will help you navigate the complexities of optics terms and enhance your grasp of optics concepts.

What are Interferomters-Principles, Types, Applications

This is a technical article about interferometers, the content includes an explanation of the light interference phenomenon, the advantages and applications of interferometers, the basic operation principle of inteferometer, and different types of interferometers.

Understanding Optical Material Properties

In this article introducing optical properties, we will be discussing learning several important glossaries of optical material properties including: Refractive Index, Chromatic Dispersion, Optical Transmission, Absorption and Light Scattering, Optical Homogeneity, Laser Induced Damage Threshold (LIDT). In the end section, we will also explore the main types of optical materials and their individual characteristics.

光学镀膜全面指南

光学镀膜是沉积在光学元件基底(如窗片、透镜、镜面)上的薄膜。通过控制反射、透射、吸收和散射,这些镀膜改变光与光学介质之间的相互作用,从而使光在各种应用中实现精确操控。

The Optical Transmission and Properties of Sapphire Windows

Sapphire Windows, often called Sapphire Glass Windows or Sapphire Optical Windows, made of single crystal synthetic sapphire (Al2O3), are becoming more and more indispensable in the exclusive fields of electro-optics due to their combination of superior optical, chemical, and mechanical properties. This article that Shalom EO presents concentrates on the optical transmission and the optical properties of sapphire windows, including the transmission wavelength range of sapphire, the transmission rate, the birefringence, and orientations. We have also analyzed the different growth methods and grades of sapphire crystals.
