SPHERICAL VS. ASPHERIC LENSES

HOW THEY’RE USED IN IMAGING APPLICATIONS

Optical Lenses are often categorized by their shape. Two common surface shapes are spherical and aspherical. Each offers unique characteristics that make it suitable for different use cases.


The process of affecting light so that its waves vibrate in one plane only; reflection, double refraction, selective absorption and scattering are all ways to polarize light.
