IR Asphere Lenses
At Hyperion Optics, we work with various infrared materials. Besides spherical parts, with increasing demand of IR aspheric components, designers are more likely to use aspheric parts in LIRP projects...
Infrared Lenses
Hyperion regularly work with IR materials that spans across almost the entire IR spectrum. We use laser-based edging device to control MWIR and LWIR lenses' decenter deviation, and test on reflective centering station to fulfill extremely precise tasks.
Germanium Window
In the range of 2-12 μm, germanium is the most commonly used material for the production of spherical lenses and windows for high efficiency infrared in imaging system. Germanium has a high refractiv...
Silicon Lenses
Hyperion Optics utilize optical grade silicon which is specified with a resistivity of 10-40 Ohm-cm higher than most semiconductor applications. For CZ grade silicon (Czochralski method) has a absorpt...
Windows
Our precision optical windows range from UV to VIS, NIR, SWIR further MWIR and LWIR applications. We offer a variety of substrates, such as Germanium (Ge), Silicon (Si), N-BK7, UV Fused Silica, Zinc Selenide (ZnSe), or Multiple anti-reflection coating options are available for the Ultraviolet (UV), Visible, or Infrared (IR). Please also refer to our IR optics category for more information.
Optical Lens Coating Technology and Development
In daily use, the friction with dust or grit (silicon oxide) will cause the inorganic or organic materials made glasses lens scratched the surface. Compared with the glass, the hardness of organic mat...
Laser Optics
Protect scan lenses from backsplatter and other workplace hazards, Hyperion Optics offers protective windows -- also known as debris windows -- that are either included as the overall scan lens assembly part, or sold separately. These plano-plano windows are available in both ZnSe and Ge materials and also supplied mounted or unmounted.
