Optical Glass

Glass material is the most common type because of its excellent optical properties such as high light transmission and environmental stability. There are many types of glass materials suitable for making optical components. The following "glass map" shows the commercially available glasses from Chinese glass manufacturer:



The specific selection depends on the optical performance requirement, environmental suitability, ease of fabrication and cost. The main characteristics of an optical material are represented by its refractive index (Nd) and its dispersion index (Abbe number).

The following are the optical material suppliers commonly used by Rising-EO. Click the icon to go to the corresponding website:

                                                                                                                          

You may need specific information when selecting the material for a custom component. The data in the following is intended to assist in these situations The simplest way to select the right materials is to let Rising EO know your applications, and our engineers would like to help you to select the right material from Chinese glass. Hereby you can see the "Contrast Table" within the glass manufacturer of China, Schott, Hoya and Ohara... More details please tape the key-press to see it.
