Physics:SELFOC Microlens

Short description: Optical technology

Light passing through a gradient-index lens is focused as in a convex lens.

SELFOC Microlenses are flat-ended gradient-index lenses. The refractive index variation in the material is created by ion exchange. They are used as collimators or lenses for filter components. The flat ends make alignment easy. They were developed by Nippon Sheet Glass.
