Tapered Homogenizing Rods for IPL Applications

Basic information

Knight Optical specializes in offering UV Fused Silica Lenses specifically designed for Solid State Laser applications. These lenses are an ideal choice for use with Solid State Lasers because they exhibit consistently high transmission in the UV/VIS/NIR regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. This high transmission enables the lenses to be used effectively with different types of lasers, such as Titanium-doped sapphire (which can be tuned to emit light between 660-1080nm) or Alexandrite (which can be tuned to emit light between 700-820nm), without any significant decrease in performance.

The performance of UV Fused Silica lenses is comparable to that of N-BK7 or other similar optical glasses. They exhibit a very similar average transmission over the visible range up to approximately 2000nm, albeit with a slightly lower refractive index. The Abbe constants of UV Fused Silica are also very similar to those of N-BK7, although slightly higher.
