硅凹凸透镜-Silicon Optical Lenses
Silicon lenses are advanced optical components engineered for precision applications in infrared (IR), terahertz (THz), and laser systems. Crafted from high-purity single-crystal silicon, they offer exceptional transparency across the 1.2–7 µm wavelength range, making them ideal for infrared imaging, thermal sensing, and spectroscopy. These lenses are available in concave (diverging) and convex (converging) configurations, enabling versatile light manipulation for focusing, collimating, or beam shaping.
  • High Thermal Conductivity: Ensures stability in high-temperature environments, critical for laser systems and industrial applications.
  • Cost-Effective Production: Utilizing semiconductor-grade processes like wafer-level etching and photolithography, silicon lenses achieve mass production with consistent quality.
  • Chemical Resistance: Resilient against harsh conditions, suitable for medical devices and corrosive environments.
  • Customization: Tailored designs for terahertz communication, laser radar, and biochemical sensing
