PCX Cylinder lenses
Similar to a PCX lens in profile, but is a portion of a cylinder instead of a sphere. Cylinder lenses can transform a point of light into a line image. A sheet of light can be created by using two PCX lenses oriented orthogonally to each other and separated by the sum of their focal lengths. Note: For rectangular lenses, radius of curvature is parallel to first dimension.

PCV Cylinder Lenses
Negative Plano Concave(PCV) cylinder lenses can be used for beam expander application. The oblong design allows the Positive Plano Convex(PCX) cylinder to gather the entire diverging beam from the Negative Plano Concave(PCV) cylinder.

Achromatic Cylindrical Lenses
Achromatic Cylinder Lenses are similar in design and function to a standard cylinder lens, but have the added benefit of reducing the spherical and chromatic aberration at the image plane. When used with a monochromatic light source (such as a laser diode), the achromatic cylinder lens will create a 50 – 90% smaller spot, depending on the numerical aperture of the lens. When used with a broadband light source, the lens will minimize chromatic aberration, yielding focused lines with less color separation, or will produce brilliant anamorphic images.

Rod Lenses
Rod lenses for use in a variety of laser and imaging systems, these components are available in a range of micro sizes for integration into a host of OEM applications. Custom sizes, variations in polishing/ groung surfaces and additional coatings are available upon request. Rod Lenses are polished on the circumference and ground on both ends. Optical performance is similar to a cylinder lens. Collimated light passing through the diameter of the rod lens will be focused into a line. N-BK7 and UV Fused Silica substrates are available for a variety of UV, Visible and NIR applications.
