    Plano Concave Lenses

    Plano-Concave Lenses are spherical negative lenses with one concave surface and one smooth surface. These lenses bend parallel light rays to the opposite side of the lens and thus have a negative focal length. Such lenses can be used to diverge light or to increase an optical system's focal length.

    Double Concave Lenses

    A Double Concave Lenses is nothing more than a biconcave lens with concave surfaces on both sides. Double-Concave Lenses are designed for applications such as beam expansion, image reduction, and light projection. Additionally, these lenses are excellent for increasing the focal length of an optical system.

    Meniscus Lenses

    Meniscus lens is a lens that has two curved spherical surfaces, one convex and the other concave. Around the middle, the meniscus lens is thicker than at the sides. Thus, with a rising beam waist and spherical aberration, the lens has a smaller beam diameter. When a meniscus lens is paired with another lens it shortens the focal length and increases the system's numerical aperture. This decreases the distortion of the image and increases the resolution of the image.

    What Is a Cylindrical Lens?

    A cylindrical lens focuses light into a straight line. Its surface is shaped from a cylinder, compressing images perpendicular to the axis and maintaining clarity parallel to it. These lenses are critical for correcting astigmatism, as well as precision tasks in spectroscopy, laser scanning, image projection, and advanced imaging systems.
