Diffusion-Based Gradient Index Optics For Infrared Imaging
OPTICAL ENGINEERING(2020)
Abstract
New moldable, infrared (IR) transmitting glasses and diffusion-based gradient index (GRIN) optical glasses enable simultaneous imaging across multiple wavebands including short-wave infrared, midwave infrared, and long-wave infrared, and offer potential for both weight savings and increased performance in optical sensors. Lens designs show potential for significant reduction in size and weight and improved performance using these materials in homogeneous and GRIN lens elements in multiband sensors. An IR-GRIN lens with Delta n = 0.2 is demonstrated. (C) The Authors. Published by SPIE under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 Unported License.
