Design Considerations for

Custom Aspheres

Aspheres used for light collection, light focusing, and reducing the number of elements in a system can take different forms and each application requires a very specific set of design considerations and specifications.

Join us for a 30-minute webinar presented by Edmund Optics' experts Kasia Sieluzycka and Dr. Pierre-Alain van Griethuysen to learn about the different considerations needed for designing custom aspheres.

At the conclusion of the webinar, participants will have a strong understanding of:

  • When to use off-the-shelf or custom aspheres over spherical lenses
  • The terminologies and key specifications regarding asphere design
  • How to choose the right asphere for your application
