Edmund Optics^®

Optics and the manipulation of light are critical for countless applications that save lives and improve quality of life across the world

Edmund Optics offers a variety of kinematic, bar-type, translating, ring, and modular mounting components.

Hyperspectral and multispectral imaging are imaging technologies that capture information from a broader portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Edmund Optics utilizes Diamond Turning to produce a wide range of high precision optical components.

Learn about the metrology that Edmund Optics® uses to guarantee the quality of all optical components and assemblies.

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

Edmund Optics® (EO) manufactures millions of precision optical components and subassemblies every year in our 5 global manufacturing facilities.

Learn how Highly-Dispersive Mirrors compensate for dispersion and compress pulse duration in ultrafast laser systems, which is critical for maximizing performance.

Acktar Advanced Coatings produces light-absorbing components and materials to control stray light and eliminate noise from specular reflection.

Aspherized Achromatic Lenses, exclusive to Edmund Optics, are doublet lenses consisting of two cemented optical elements that are matched for their color-correction ability and small RMS spot size.

The UAV Series Lenses are compact, high-resolution, infinite conjugate lenses ideal for UAVs and other mobile robotics systems.

Optical Windows provide protection between an optical system or sensitive electronics and an outside environment.

Large Diameter Gimbal Optical Mounts available from Edmund Optics are used to integrate large precision optical components, such as mirrors, into OEM and benchtop systems.

Mirrors are commonly used to fold or compact an optical system.

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

Edmund Optics® manufactures several different types of ruggedized imaging lens assemblies.

Axicons are conical-shaped optical components used to create a ring-shaped beam.

Edmund Optics (EO) manufactures over 5 million optical components every year at our global facilities in the Americas and Asia.

Learn how to specify imaging system components.

Compound Parabolic Concentrators (CPCs) are concentrator lenses made from rotated parabolic shapes to create specific acceptance angles through which divergent light is collected.

Polarizers are used in a wide range of imaging and research and development applications.

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