Applications

Infrared thermal imaging: security cameras, industrial thermometry, vehicle infrared and outdoor night-vision lenses. Medical: infrared diagnosis, thermal screening and noninvasive detection paths. Lasers: mid-infrared focusing, collimation and beam delivery. Industry/detection: infrared spectroscopy, exploration instruments and high-temperature monitoring. Research/aviation: infrared microscopy, laboratory optics and airborne infrared detection.

Key Features

Broadband high transmission: stable, uniform visible-to-longwave-IR transmission over 400nm–12000nm (0.4–12μm). Strong mechanical/environmental adaptability: chemically inert and humidity/dust resistant for harsh outdoor/industrial use. Ultraprecision fabrication: tolerance ±0.01mm, surface figure to λ/10, surface quality 60-40 and distortion-free imaging. Full structures: spherical/aspheric, plano-convex/biconvex/plano-concave/meniscus. Broadband coatings: infrared AR, DLC and broadband AR. Stable imaging: uniform index/low IR scattering for precision infrared systems. IV. Material advantages. Coverage 0.4μm (visible)–12μm (longwave IR), excellent 8–12μm transmission. Stable index, low scatter/high contrast for thermal imaging. Expansion coefficient 7.6, softening temperature 1525℃, strong stability without significant deformation. Knoop hardness 120, reliable strength, impact/wear resistance and long life. Insoluble in water, acid/alkali/humidity resistant for stable complex-environment use. V. Available structures: plano-convex, biconvex, plano-concave, biconcave, meniscus, collimating, focusing and aspheric lenses. VI. Coatings. Mid-IR AR: dedicated 3–5μm, 8–12μm and 2–14μm. Broadband AR: full-band 0.4–12μm improves visible/IR dual-mode transmission. DLC increases hardness, contamination/scratch resistance and life. High-laser-damage-threshold coatings improve strong-laser tolerance in mid-IR systems. VIII. Yasi Optical advantages. Fully controlled in-house closed-loop cutting → milling/grinding → polishing → coating → inspection, with full traceability. Precision equipment: ZYGO interferometers, Nikon precision goniometers and optical dimensional instruments for comprehensive quality control. Large sizes: batch 1–500mm large-aperture zinc sulfide lenses for high-end systems. One-stop dimensions, structures, focal lengths and coatings with optical-path support. High-reliability medical/industrial compatibility supports medical-infrared compliance. IX. Quality assurance. All zinc sulfide lenses undergo ZYGO interferometric figure, optical dimensional, infrared-transmission and surface-quality inspections to ensure 100% optical and dimensional compliance. Automated ultrasonic ultraclean washing and vacuum moisture-proof packaging ensure transport and long-term stability.
