Uniform AR Coatings on Ball Lenses Minimize Costs
IsoSphere AR Coated Ball Lenses are durable, evenly-coated antireflection ball lenses in diameters from 200 microns to 10 mm, created using the company's proprietary IsoDyn low pressure chemical vapor deposition process. This process provides an ultra-uniform coating over the entire surface of the sphere. The company's multilayer coating capability provides dual and broad band AR coatings. The dual band coatings allow one lens to be used for either wavelength, reducing the need for lens inventories. The IsoSphere AR coated ball lenses reduce device assembly costs because there is no need for orientation of the lens in a device since the coating is uniform over all. A wide choice of lens materials also helps minimize costs while permitting maximum freedom in the optical design.
