In a study published in Optica, these researchers demonstrate the new method by using it to make a millimeter-sized plano-convex optical lens with an imaging performance similar to a commercially ...

Though still only in the prototype stage, this flat lens could one day be used on space telescopes, and perhaps even on ...

and subsequently employed to demonstrate the fabrication of micro-optical devices by thermal imprinting. Using 3D-printed fused silica templates, we show that concave as well as convex lens ...

They have the advantage of dramatically reducing size and thickness compared to conventional convex optical lenses, making them a focus for next-generation devices in optical system fields such as ...

A spyglass with a plano-convex lens that focuses at 12 inches and a ... each of which comes into focus at a different point on the optical axis—hence the color fringes seen in refractors.

Argyle International manufactures optics. All of our optical components are held to the highest standards, always at substantial saving. Argyle makes a variety of components from plano-convex lenses ...
