In recent years, the largest terrestrial and orbital telescopes operating in a wide spectral range of wavelengths use the technology of segmented composite elements to form the main mirror. This approach allows: to expand the spectral operating range from 0.2 to 11.0 μm and to increase the diameter of the entrance pupil of the receiving optical system, while maintaining the optimal ...

The use of glued lens components in optical devices improves the image quality of telescopic and photographic lenses or inverting systems by eliminating a number of aberrations, and also reduces light losses in the optical system of the device. The traditional production process of lenses gluing involves the sequential execution of a set of technological operations and takes a ...
