Cylindrical lenses condense or expand light in only one single dimension, which can be used to expand the output of a laser diode into a symmetrical beam, to meet the stringent requirements of industry applications. Cylindrical lenses are also used to focus light into a thin line in the applications of laser industries, rangefinders, scanning, spectroscopy, laser diode, acousto-optic, optical processing, and holography etc. Based on our precision processing and reliable coating capabilities, Kriwave can offer Plano-Convex Cylindrical Lenses, Plano-Concave Cylindrical Lenses and Achromatic Cylindrical Lenses, which are made of Optical glass, Fused
Silica, CaF2 etc. with uncoated or coated options and cover from ultraviolet(UV) to infrared(IR) spectral region.
