Silicon Aspheric Lenses

Overview

Silicon Aspheric Lenses are specified for compact NIR/SWIR imaging, sensing, and aberration-controlled optics. This page focuses on material choice, geometry, coating route, and the engineering information needed before a quotation.

Why This Design Matters

Silicon (Si) is used because silicon supports compact IR optics, while the aspheric form reduces spherical aberration compared with simple spherical lenses. For this product, the key decision is whether the Silicon aspheric lens geometry, aperture, coating, and mounting conditions match the optical layout.

Application Guidance

Use this product when the optical path requires compact NIR/SWIR imaging, sensing, and aberration-controlled optics. Engineers should confirm wavelength, beam diameter or field size, clear aperture, coating target, and mechanical envelope before final drawings are released.

• NIR and SWIR imaging
• infrared sensing modules
• compact lens assemblies
• laser optics
• gas detection optics

Engineering Notes and Inquiry

For custom production, send target wavelength, focal length, F-number, coating target, and drawing tolerances. OPTOstokes-IROptical can review the drawing, confirm feasible specification ranges, and align the optical component with the downstream assembly.
