Confused about the differences between traditional-coated and hard-coated optical filters?

Many laser applications are prone to specular reflections back into the source, causing overheating and decreased stability and lifetime.

Collimated light occurs when light rays travel parallel to each other.

When doing basic imaging, how do you determine the magnification an optical lens will provide?

Although a common misconception, individual optical lenses do not always form an image when the object plane is placed a focal length away from the lens.

Free-space optical (FSO) communications transmit information wirelessly through the air using lasers with improved bandwidth. Learn more!
