Optical Fabrication Capabilities
- Planos: Flat optics include a range of optical components with at least one nominally flat surface.
- Spheres: Rotationally symmetric optics whose shape corresponds to the section of a spherical surface. Made with a particular radius or curvature.
- Aspheres: A lens whose surface profiles are not portions of a sphere or cylinder.
- Freeforms: An optical component that is not translationally or rotationally symmetric.
