Custom Microscope Objectives
Special Optics is a leading designer and manufacturer of high N.A. microscope objective lenses. These precision optics are used within the life science, quantum physics, ultra cold atom and physics research arenas, as well as industrial applications. In addition to our pre-engineered lenses listed below, custom designed lens orders are welcomed.
We specialize in the design and manufacture of custom microscope objective lenses for researchers and OEMs who require a solution to a complex application that cannot be solved by off-the-shelf microscope objective lenses.
Our designs span working distances of 0.3mm to 55mm, cover wavelengths from visible (390-750nm) to near infrared (700-1400nm) and can be modified for aqueous, oil and vacuum environments with housings of stainless, ultem and titanium.
