UV grade fused silica is ideal for UV and visible applications, but IR grade fused silica has better transmission in the IR due to a lack of OH- impurities.

Researchers from the University of Hawaii at Manoa use telecentric lenses and illuminators from Edmund Optics to advance our understanding of lung function.

The TECHSPEC® Vega™ Laser Line Beam Expanders from Edmund Optics® are divergence adjustable to compensate for input beam divergence.

Advances in microscopy, imaging, and extreme ultraviolet optics

Axicons are conical-shaped optical components used to create a ring-shaped beam.

Axicons can be used in a variety of different fields. Find out more about axicons and how to use them in applications at Edmund Optics.

Edmund Optics helped fuel Dan Magorian's fascination with science in 1966 when he built a Edmund fiber optic tree while in middle school.

A new generation of small, cost-effective, CW ultraviolet (UV) lasers allows more applications to move to UV wavelengths for increased power and precision.
