Applications: Beam Collimation, Light Coupling, Fiber Lasers, etc.
A C-Lens is a specialized lens with a unique surface profile tailored for fiber laser applications. These lenses are commonly used as beam collimators, circulators, or other focusing sub-components. One of the primary applications of a C-lens is to collimate point light sources into parallel beams, facilitating the coupling of light between different sections, such as from a diode to fiber or from fiber to a planar waveguide. Compared to other lenses like Grin-Lenses, C-lenses feature a constant refractive index, low insertion loss, cost-efficiency at long working distances, and excellent capability to handle broad working areas.
