GRIN lenses technology

The Refractive Index Distributions (RID) in GRIN lens preforms are made by multi-stage optimized ion-exchange diffusion between silicate mineral glasses and salt melts.

 

The proprietary interferometric techniques are used to optimize the diffusion procedure and to determine GRIN lens characteristics.

In the LAG lenses - Low Aperture GRIN the nature of the changing of refractive index in glass via ion-exchange lies mainly in molecular volume increase. That is why in relatively high index mother glass the longitudal chromatic F-C difference of ray-trajectory pitch is very low (0.25%) and negative PF>Pd>PC (Fig.1).

Special annealing treatment is used to eliminate the residual post-diffusion birefringence.

LAG lenses are specially treated to create the dark anti-flick surface coating (Fig.2). The elimination of the out-of-aperture rays by this 20-mkm coating makes the image contrast significantly enhanced. The LAG resolution is not worse than 200 lines per mm in 90% zone.

In the HAG - High Aperture GRIN - imaging lenses and GTC - GRIN Tele Com - fiber collimating lenses the nature of the changing of refractive index via ion-exchange lies in polarizability difference of changing ions.

Due to great dispersion difference between mother glass and ion-exchanged-glass the longitudal chromatic F-C difference of ray-trajectory pitch is comparatively high ( 3.5%) and positive PF>Pd>PC.

Special achromatic length is used for HAG endoscope objective lenses (Fig.3) The resolution is not worse than 500 lines per mm in 90% diameter zone.
