Beam Expander and Objective Selection Guide

Newport offers a full range of beam expanders , F-Theta scan lenses, and objectives to meet various experimental requirements. Our beam expanders provide a fixed expansion factor with adjustable divergence to effectively control the beam size of laser output beams. Standard and telecentric F-Theta scan lenses are available to provide a flat field at the image plane for scanning applications. Objective types include Precision Objective Lenses, UV Objective Lenses, Laser Diode Objective Lenses and Reflective Microscope Objectives.
