• Diamondturned plastic optics

    The aspheric shape of diamondturned plastic optics reduces the number of focusing lenses in a system. Irregular profiles often solve the mounting restrictions of conventional lenses. These optics are suited for application in detector systems, solar apparatus, colorimetry, and medical instrumentation. For applications that require nonimaging energy collection, integrated packages that use compound parabolic concentrators are available.
