Valentina Doushkina, University of California, Irvine, Extension and Doushkina Optics

Development of infrared detector technology has brought to market high-performance infrared cameras for demanding thermal imaging applications in the short-wave, mid-wave and long-wave spectral bands. There is a vast demand for high-performance imaging optics for infrared cameras in a variety of markets and applications. Thermal stability, impact resistance and low manufacturing cost make hybrid glass-polymer optics well suited for IR applications. Courtesy of Diverse Optics Inc. (formerly Qioptiq Polymer Inc.) Low manufacturing cost, thermal stability and impact resistance are some...Read full article
