Q: What does radiation resistance mean and how do optimized radiation resistant lenses maintain throughput? A: Radiation resistant, radiation tolerant, radiation hard or non-browning lenses are all...

Unfortunately, these lenses offer almost no transmission below 380 nm. For monitoring, detection and imaging applications in the Ultraviolet (UV) waveband (200 – 400nm) this is just not good enough....

As materials are heated or cooled, they will expand and contract. However, the rate at which this happens will vary from material to material. Changes in temperature can also affect the refractive...

This new video addresses how we ensure the...

Q: Do I need radiation tolerant lenses for my space application? A: The impact of cosmic radiation on your lens or optical system is a major consideration when designing for use in #space....

In the oil exploration industry - using camera or video inspection technology to undertake surveys pre and post treatment are vital parts of any maintenance programme. This is because they allow...
