Achromats consist of two or more elements, usually of crown and flint glass, that have been corrected for chromatic aberration with respect to two selected wavelengths. They are also known as achromatic lenses. This area includes micro achromats as well.

Cylindrical lens have at least one surface that is formed in the shape of a cylinder. Cylindrical lenses are used to correct astigmatism in the eye, and, in rangefinders, to produce astigmatism, stretching a point of light into a line. This area includes micro cylindrical lenses as well.

Long pass filters transmit a wide spectral band of long wavelength radiation while blocking short wavelength radiation. Short pass filters transmit a wide spectral band of short wavelength radiation and block long wave radiation.
|
|
Neutral density filters are designed to reduce transmission evenly across a portion of the spectrum. They are slightly sensitive to angles but they are much more forgiving than interference filters.
|
|
Optical bandpass filters are designed to transmit a specific waveband. They are composed of many thin layers of dielectric materials, which have differing refractive indices to produce constructive and destructive interference in the transmitted light.

Optical coating services design optical coatings and apply them to crystal, fiber, glass, metal, or polymer substrates to produce optical components.

Optical crystals are transparent in different spectral regions, depending upon the crystal material.
|
|
Optical lenses are transparent components made from optical-quality materials and curved to converge or diverge transmitted rays from an object. These rays then form a real or virtual image of the object. This area includes micro lenses.

|
Optical prisms are blocks of optical material with flat, polished sides that are arranged at precisely controlled angles to one another. They are used in optical systems to deflect or redirect beams of light. They can invert or rotate images, disperse light into component wavelengths, and separate states of polarization.

|
Optical windows are used to isolate different physical environments while allowing light to pass relatively unimpeded.
|
|
Plate beamsplitters are semi-mirrors, which reflect part of the incident energy (absorb a relatively small part) and transmit the rest. Some are neutral and some are spectrally selective.
|
|
Polarizing cube beamsplitters divide unpolarized light into two orthogonally polarized beams at 90° to each other. The transmitted beam is mostly polarized parallel to the plane of incidence (p-polarized), and the reflected beam is mostly polarized perpendicular to the plane of incidence (s-polarized).

Spherical lenses, also known as singlets, are transparent optical components consisting of one or more pieces of optical glass with surfaces so curved that they serve to converge or diverge the transmitted rays from an object, thus forming a real or virtual image of that object. This area includes micro spherical lenses as well.
