LightPath invites you to visit them at Booth #1451 and be among
the first to see LightPath's new:
- Thermal imaging assemblies with diamond-like coatings
- Green lenses: Molded glass aspheric optics optimized to provide
high transmission and improved performance for green diode
lasers
- Connectorized collimators: Product line expanded to include
405nm and 633nm wavelengths, new choices for a variety of beam
sizes, and a more rugged, improved glass optic
- Long Wave InfraRed (LWIR) collimating optics: New long
wavelength collimating lenses designed to collimate quantum cascade
lasers
On May 1st, at 9:40 AM, Ray J.
Pini will be presenting a paper entitled "A Practical
Approach to LWIR Wafer-based Optics for Thermal Imaging
Systems." The paper will compare a typical high volume thermal
imaging design manufactured from discrete lens elements to a
similar design optimized for manufacture through a wafer-based
approach. The presentation will explore both performance and cost
trade-offs, as well as review the manufacturability of all designs
using LightPath's molding process.
Jim Gaynor, LightPath CEO,
stated, "We are looking forward to seeing OEMs, partners, and
prospects at this important industry event. We are particularly
looking forward to the opportunity to have Ray Pini discuss the benefits and value of
LightPath's wafer-based molding process for thermal imaging
systems."
DSS is considered the industry's leading meeting for scientists,
researchers and engineers from industry, military, government
agencies, and academia throughout the world. The event features 55
co-located technical conferences, more than 500 exhibiting
companies and agencies and attracts more than 6,500 top scientists,
engineers and product developers.
