Design of IR-Corrected Lenses
In addition to having high transmission, Kowa’s HC-VIS-SW series are IR-Corrected. The primary benefit for IR-Correction is that it allows an image to remain in focus even when the wavelength changes from visible to infrared or vice versa. With a standard visible, NIR or SWIR lens, a focus shift will occur due to differences in the refractive index if the wavelength fluctuates. However, by incorporating extra low dispersion (XD) glass and carefully aligning all internal lens elements, such focus shift problems are eliminated.
