Dichroic Mirror

 

Dichroic Mirror

Hyperion Optics's complete range of cost effective dichroic filter range offers superior transmission, reflection and absorption characteristics.

 

Dichroic filters consist of thin film dielectric coatings on glass and exhibit sharp transitions between transmitted and reflected wavelengths. Dichroic filters are similar to traditional interference filters but differentiate themselves by reflecting all unwanted wavelengths. Consequently our dichroic range also offers minimal absorbance characteristics.

 

Our dichroic filters are available in longpass, shortpass, bandpass, bandblocking and colour correction types over a range of wavelengths. Dichroic shortpass and longpass filters can also act as hot and cold optical mirrors respectively. Click on the links below for more information on individual dichroic filter types.

With over 12+ years of optical assembly manufacturing and fabrication experience, Hyperion can deliver an optimized lens solution with guaranteed satisfactory results for your unique application.

Singlet Lenses

 

Singlet lens is a lens consisting of a pure single element, which can be considered as the fundamental element of developing optical systems. Based on optical engineers’ design, multiple singlet lenses might be utilized within an optical system with other optics.

 

As the basic optical element, singlet lenses are commonly used in engineers’ design, and further assembly works for a variety of applications such as imaging collimating. At hyp design, our manufacturing capability covers Plano Concave/Convex, Bi-Concave, Bi-Convex, Positive and Negative Meniscus, ranged from many variations of optical glass and fused silica and even crystal. With our reliable coating technique, AR or V-coatings can be applied to reach expectation. Special treatment i.e. edge blackening / special packaging / labeling also available upon request.

 

Our singlet BK7 lenses production competency helps our customers to build their unique and cutting edge applications such as microscopy device, diameter 2.5mm~3.5mm design, for projection/ observation applications, we can deliver 180+mm in diameter singlet lens. Besides regular visible spectrum singlet lenses, NIR / SWIR/ / LWIR/ MWIR lens are also available at our facility, please refer to our IR optics for more information.

Ball & Half Ball Lenses

 

This product is polished hemispherical lens made of optical glass fused silica, sapphire, or other optical materials which have a relatively high transmission rate for a diode with an anti-reflection coating. Widely used for coupling light in and out of fibers. It has the advantage of being easy to fabrication and light weight which can be considered the ideal component for optical communication applications.

 

Although due to the spherical aberration which leads to lower coupling efficiency, its unique easy-packaging attribute guarantees ball lenses are suitable for series production for optical communication applications with no doubts, especially compared to aspheric lenses.

 

Ball Lens Specs

Hyperion Optics supplies a broad range of ball lenses to your specifications; we offer in fused silica with excellent UV and IR transmission between 185nm to 2100nm, please refer to its transmission curve for detailed information. Sphere Lenses are also available upon custom specifications, in a range of alternative diameters.

Achromatic Doublet Lenses

 

At hyp design, with decades fabrication experiences, we have been providing our customer a vast number of achromatic lenses for their applications in different precision grades, please check ourtest plate radius available online for download to save your cost on custom achromatic doublet lenses optical design. Particularly for cost-sensitive design, our series production capability always ensures a satisfying pricing solution.

 

As optical designers widely use doublets which contribute latitude to eliminate chromatic and spherical aberrations more thoroughly. We also provide excellent suggestions for glass material selection in individual design as we distinguish the importance of refractive index precision in material selection stage despite the design data in software.

 

Universally, with particular flint glass designers might choose, certain glass’ deliquescence attribute lead to cosmetic failure after polishing, or even affect the transmission after coating. Let us help to avoid such problem in your design to live process.
