A cylinders make it possible to reduce the total number of optical components. In this way, the weight of optical systems can also be sustainably reduced. A cylinders are used in lighting technology, measuring instruments, spectroscopy, laser scanners and medical technology, among other applications.
A cylinder lenses can be used to collimate an elliptically diverging beam in such a way that a round profile or an elliptical profile with defined semi-axes is created.
Acylinders or aspherical cylinders are lenses with a cylindrical surface whose cross-section deviates from the circular shape. The aspherical cylindrical lens does not focus incident light in a focal point, but along a focal line. This minimizes imaging errors and increases efficiency.
These acylindrical lenses, which are the cylindrical equivalent of aspheric lenses, are made to combine the advantages of an aspheric surface for aberration reduction with the one-dimensional focusing of a typical cylindrical lens.
The Global A cylinder Lenses market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
As with aspheric lenses, Edmund Optics’ TECHSPEC A cylinder Lenses offer diffraction-limited focusing performance in just one dimension.
TECHSPEC A cylinder Lenses are excellent for producing thin line profiles because they minimize spherical aberration along the focusing axis. The spot size of monochromatic light sources is significantly reduced by TECHSPEC A cylinder Lenses in comparison to standard cylinder lenses to produce sharp, thin lines.
