Cylindrical lens
A cylindrical lens has a cylindrical surface that allows incident light to be focused in one dimension while also producing a stretching effect on the image. Its focal length can be positive or negative; based on this property, cylindrical lenses are commonly used in various scenarios: first, focusing incident light into a line, or changing the aspect ratio of an image; second, used in laser line generation, anamorphic beam shaping, and even for annularizing laser output. Cylindrical lenses include the following types: plano-convex cylindrical lenses, plano-concave cylindrical lenses, biconvex cylindrical lenses, biconcave cylindrical lenses, meniscus cylindrical lenses, cross cylindrical lenses, shaped cylindrical lenses, achromatic cylindrical lenses, reflective cylindrical lenses, free-form cylindrical lenses, special-process cylindrical lenses, etc.
