LightPath Technologies introduces Molded Aspheric Collimating Lens for MWIR and LWIR laser diodes.
ORLANDO, Fla., Jan. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- LightPath Technologies (NASDAQ:LPTH) is introducing a new aspheric molded lens for collimating light from MWIR and LWIR lasers, such as quantum cascade lasers (QCL).
This lens is manufactured from LightPath's Black Diamond(TM) IR Glass and has a high numerical aperture designed for maximum light collection from quantum cascade lasers. The aspheric design enables a single lens to replace complex multiple component optical system. Anti-Reflective coatings are available for the MWIR (3 um - 5 um) and the LWIR (7 um - 12 um).
Quantum Cascade Lasers are used for a variety of applications including homeland security, biomedical analysis, and chemical detection. The National Science Foundation (NSF) has recently invested $15 Million for QCL development at the new MIRTHE center based in Princeton, NJ.
LightPath Technologies Inc. will be exhibiting the MWIR/LWIR Collimating Lenses in Booth 1034 at SPIE Photonics West Conference in San Jose, California, January 23rd through January 25th.
