INOUIRY
A rod lens (also known as a cylindrical lens) is an optical element that changes the direction of light through refraction or reflection.
Rod lenses are typically cylindrical or prismatic in shape. They utilize differences in the refractive index of materials such as glass and quartz to focus or disperse light. Their operating principle is based on the refraction and reflection of light. By adjusting the relationship between the material’s refractive index and the angle of incidence, they alter the path of light.
They are commonly used in the optical systems of microscopes, telescopes, and other equipment to adjust optical paths and optimize imaging. In applications such as laser cutting and optical guidance, rod lenses enable directional focusing or beam shaping. They are also used as optical accessories in medical endoscopes and as teaching models in physics experiments.
