Plano Convex Cylindrical Lens

Plano convex cylindrical lens has one flat and one convex surface, the typical application of plano convex cylindrical lens is one-dimensional amplification or compression, spherical lenses act symmetrically on incident light in two directions, while cylindrical lenses only act on incident light in one direction, a typical application is to use a pair of cylindrical lenses to shape deformed beams.

The Application of Cylindrical Lens

Cylindrical lens can be used for correcting astigmatism in systems, and are widely used in high-precision testing instruments and devices, such as high-power lasers and long-distance offline interferometers. Cylindrical lenses are often used in industries such as synchrotron radiation beam lines, barcode scanners and strong laser systems, electronic optical metrology verification, laser scanners, spectroscopy, laser diode output light shaping and beauty, and light film lighting fixtures at the same time. It is also widely used in the fields of astronomy, medical, and industry, such as telescopes, endoscopes, and surgical microscopes, laser cutting machines, and micro processing machines.

Cylindrical lenses are commonly used as laser line generators, or to adjust image height size or correct for astigmatism in imaging systems. JT produces high precision cylindrical lenses in plano convex, double convex, and plano concave, double concave, meniscus, achromatic doublets and triplets, develop and manufacture high-end optics from 0.5 mm to 350 mm in diameter, which are used in many different fields of application, such as projection systems, imaging systems, analytical instruments, optical instruments, and laser measuring systems, etc.
