Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Researchers at Rochester Photonics Corp. have introduced a method for the speedy manufacture of high-NA microlenses, a development that could have an impact on telecommunications. The method, under review by the US Patent Office, involves a process called direct surface profiling. This causes the surface of the organic material to change its thickness. The new method enables the company to produce precision, high-NA micro-optic components at low cost and large quantities. G.
