Plano-convex axicons

Altechna offers two types of plano-convex axicons – regular and precision.

  • Regular axicons create an annular beam in a far-field
  • Precision axicons also transform a Gaussian beam into a non-diffractive Bessel beam in the near field

Plano-convex axicons (conical lenses) are used for a variety of applications. The quality of the generated ring and Bessel beam as well as all mechanical tolerances are fully evaluated in our metrology laboratory using different measurement methods.

Please feel free to contact our support team with any questions you may have.
