Optical Material Designation Of Glass Types

*DND Optics has very strong capability in fabricating a wide variety of optical components with various optical materials.The most important material properties to consider for an optical element are transmission versus wavelength, index of refraction, thermal characteristics, mechanical and chemical characteristics and cost.
When you select the material, please do not hesitate to let us know your applications, we will help you to select the right materials for you.

*Our optical glasses are classified by their main chemical components and are identified by refractive index (nd) and Abbe-number (Vd). Primarily they can be divided into groups, and further they can be identified into various types. Each group has a name and a code, and each type of glass within some group is named by the abbreviated group symbol and an Arab number. We classified them into 18 groups according to their positions on nd- Vd situation chart and their main chemical components.
