In the ever-evolving field of optics, the demand for lightweight materials that maintain high performance and structural integrity is paramount. From aerospace applications to precision instruments, selecting the right material involves a delicate balance of factors. This comprehensive guide explores five key lightweight optical materials—Fused Silica, Silicon Carbide (SiC), Zerodur, Ceramic Aluminum Oxide (ALON), and…

What is precision polishing in optic processing？ Polishing is a technique used to reduce the surface roughness of optical components using mechanical, chemical, or electrochemical methods to achieve a smooth and flat surface. Producing optical components typically involves steps like rough grinding, fine grinding, polishing, and coating. After fine grinding, a crack layer of about…

The Origin of Astronomical Telescopes In 1609, the renowned physicist Galileo heard that Hans Lippershey, a Dutch spectacle maker, had invented an instrument capable of viewing distant objects, referred to as a "wonder." Familiar with the optical properties of convex and concave lenses, Galileo quickly utilized lenses to construct a telescope and presented his results…

The Advantage of Aspheric Optics Using aspherical optical elements in optical systems not only increases the freedom of optical design, which is beneficial for aberration correction, image quality improvement, and overall optical system performance, but also reduces the number and weight of optical elements, simplifies instrument structure, significantly reduces system size and weight, and lowers…
