Laser Optics

Prisms are transparent optical devices which refract or reflect light. They have manifold applications in laser technology.

Laser Lenses are used to focus collimated light from laser beams in a variety of laser applications. Laser Lenses include a range of lens types including HGQ Lenses, Cylinder Lenses, or Laser Generator Lenses. Laser Lenseare designed to focus light in several different ways depending on the lens type, such as focusing down to a point,a line, or a ring. Many different lens types are available in a range of wavelengths.

Laser Protect Windows(Laser protective glass, protective filters or welding protective windows) are used to save for the high cost of laser optics.

Laser mirrors are fabricated with specialized coatings, which will offer high damage thresholds.

HGO grows LiF crystals in house using Czochralski technology. LiF crystal or lithium fluoride crystal is an optical material with outstanding transmittance in VUV region. It is also used for windows, prisms, and lenses in the visible and infrared in 0.104µm-7µm. LiF single crystal is sensitive to thermal shock and would be attacked by atmospheric moisture at 400°C. When working at a high temperature of 600°C, the LiF crystal softens and is slightly plastic, so it can be bent into radius plates. In addition irradiation produces color centers. Hence, users should take measures to protect LiF crystals from moisture and high energy radiation damages. What is more LiF can be cleaved along (100) plane and less commonly (110) plane. The optical characteristics are good and yet the structure is not perfect and cleavage is difficult.

Double Convex Lenses are used in image relay applications, or for imaging objects at close conjugates. Double Convex Lenses have positive focal lengths, along with two convex surfaces with equal radii. Aberrations will increase as the conjugate ratios increase.  Double-Convex Lenses are used in a range of industries or applications. HG OPTRONICS offers Double Convex lenses with a variety of coating options.

Laser Protect Windows(Laser protective glass, protective filters or welding protective windows) are used to save for the high cost of laser optics.

Holmium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (Ho:YAG) is an important solid-state laser crystal. Due to the excellent physicochemical properties of theYAG matrix, it can withstand high thermal loads and is an important pumpsource laser crystal for mid-wave infrared lasers. At the same time, it is alsoan ideal light source for coherent Doppler wind radar, differentialabsorption radar, and laser rangefinders.
