BARRINGTON, N.J., Jan. 6, 2006 -- Edmund Optics, a Barrington, N.J., producer of optics, imaging and photonics technology, announced it recently received $2.8 million in Department of Defense (DoD) ManTech funding to develop advanced manufacturing tools vital to producing complex conformal and advanced optical elements such as aspheres. An asphere lens is an optical component that has at least one nonspherical surface. Aspheric surfaces can increase the numerical aperture of a lens while minimizing system aberrations. Also, when designed into lens systems, aspheres may enable a reduction of...Read full article

    photonics
    The technology of generating and harnessing light and other forms of radiant energy whose quantum unit is the photon. The science includes light emission, transmission, deflection, amplification and detection by optical components and instruments, lasers and other light sources, fiber optics, electro-optical instrumentation, related hardware and electronics, and sophisticated systems. The range of applications of photonics extends from energy generation to detection to communications and...
