We will choose high quality single crystal Germanium material to
make lens. The resistivity of germanium material is usually 5-40
ohms. We can also choose Germanium material with specified
resistivity according to customer's requirements.
The production technology of germanium lens usually includes
low-speed polishing, high-speed polishing and single point diamond
turning techniques.
a) Low-speed polishing, also known as classical polishing, can
produce germanium lenses with higher accuracy, but the production
efficiency is very low and the cost is relatively high.
b) High-speed polishing can make germanium lens quickly. It is the
best choice in mass production. It has lower production cost.
c) Single point diamond turning techniques can make germanium lens
with arbitrary curved surface, and single point car can also be
selected for small batch germanium lens samples.
According to the customer's use scenario, we will recommend suitable germanium lens for customers and choose the best solution.
