LightPath Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: LPTH), a global manufacturer,
distributor and integrator of patented optical components and
assemblies, announced today it has added two new molded infrared
aspheres to its catalog of Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) lenses. These
lenses are designed as the primary optics for thermal imagers or
collimating lenses for Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) used in a wide
variety of applications including homeland security, firefighting,
predictive maintenance and driver's vision enhancement systems in
automobiles. These infrared markets have a combined current
estimated value of over $2.5 billion.
The first lens, 390021, is an extended focal length lens
designed to collimate light from a QCL (a type of laser) that is
enclosed in a temperature controlled housing or cryostat. The
primary applications are for infrared countermeasures (IRCM) and
gas sensing equipment. The second lens, 390023, is a low cost
thermal imaging lens designed specifically for the low-cost thermal
imaging security camera market. These new lenses are manufactured
from LightPath's Black Diamond ™ chalcogenide glass and are a less
expensive substitute for high-volume, diamond-turned Germanium and
Zinc Selenide optics.
"LightPath Technologies is continuing to diversify its product
line for Infrared Optics with the introduction of these lenses.
These new products will address the rapidly expanding QCL, thermal
imaging and night vision enhancement markets," said Jim Gaynor, CEO
and President of LightPath.
