Resolve Optics announces a new brochure that provides an informative introduction to radiation resistant optics, their capabilities, areas of use and specifications of standard lenses available off-the-shelf.

Drawing upon approaching 30 years experience - Resolve Optics has built a strong reputation for specialist lens design and manufacture of smaller production quantities of radiation-resistant (non-browning) lenses and optical products on time to strict quality and target price guidelines. 

All optical elements within Resolve Optics radiation resistant lens designs are made using cerium oxide doped glass or synthetic silica enabling them to withstand radiation doses of up to 100,000,000 rads and temperatures up to 55°C without discoloration or degradation of performance. All Resolve Optics radiation resistant lenses provide high image resolution and minimum geometric distortion from 400 to 750nm.

While Resolve Optics has extensive experience of supplying fixed focus and zoom radiation resistant lenses for applications in Nuclear reprocessing and power generation - today our expertise is helping organisations operating in a growing number of different and interesting applications. In medical research - Resolve Optics radiation resistant lenses form targeting elements in synchrotron radiation therapy machines and also in commercial x-ray instrumentation. In outer space all instrumentation, sensors and cameras are subject to constant bombardment by radiation that will quickly degrade and make inoperative standard optical components. Space borne applications present a challenging environment, subject to radiation, where camera lens servicing or replacement is highly undesirable. Recently NASA selected Resolve Optics to supply them with a selection of high performance, radiation resistant zoom lenses because of their expertise in this area and willingness to work on adapting standard 3x and 6x non- browning zoom lens designs to be 'space ready'.

Resolve Optics has developed the rare capability to produce small production quantities of high performance, mounted lenses with the professional look, feel and quality equivalent to the best professional photographic and broadcast TV lenses. Over the last 30 years, Resolve Optics Ltd. have developed market leading applications expertise in a range of areas - most notably industrial machine vision, aerospace, broadcast TV, instrumentation, security and the nuclear industry.
