Ball lenses as the name suggests are complete spheres.Ball Lenses are widely used in optical measurement systems,projection&imaging optical systems,laser collimating and focusing, laser-to-fiber coupling, fiber-to-fiber coupling, and fiber-to-detector coupling. Endoscopy,bar code readers.It is made of single piece of glass or crystal and can focus or collimate light,depending upon the geometry of the input source.
Atoptical can supply spherical ball lenses in various materials, including BK7(Glass), Sapphire, CaF2, or custom materials upon request.
ATOPTIK’s optical ball lenses are high-precision optical components used in fields such as optical communication, fiber coupling, laser collimation, and sensing. These lenses deliver outstanding optical performance and precision, playing a key role in efficient optical transmission and signal processing.

High-Precision Spherical Surface:
Excellent surface quality, typically reaching 20/10 or better.
Minimal spherical deviation, with sphericity error less than 0.001 mm, ensuring efficient light focusing.
Diverse Material Options:
Available in high-refractive-index materials, such as BK7, fused silica, sapphire, and LaSFN9, to meet different wavelength requirements.
Quartz ball lenses offer high-temperature resistance and UV stability, while sapphire lenses are ideal for applications requiring greater mechanical strength.
Wide Wavelength Range:
Suitable for optical applications from ultraviolet (UV) to infrared (IR), covering wavelengths from 190 nm to 2000 nm.
High Transmission Rate:
Anti-reflection (AR) coatings reduce reflection losses and enhance transmission efficiency. Custom AR coatings can be applied for specific wavelength ranges (e.g., 400-700 nm or 1310/1550 nm).
