the Optical Society of Ameria, in partnership with SCHOTT North America Inc., brings you a free, interactive webinar: Introduction to Optical Glasses: Characteristics, Applications and Customizations.

High-quality optical glasses are the key enabling material for the realization of ever-increasingly sophisticated imaging systems. Advancements in image correction have relied not only on the use of sophisticated ray-tracing techniques and clever engineering, but also on the availability of high-quality optical glasses with desirable attributes.

Register now for this special complimentary webinar presented by Dr. Mark J. Davis, Senior Research Scientist, SCHOTT North America Inc.

What You Will Learn:

• Basic physics and chemistry of glasses.
• Key optical, mechanical, and thermal properties of optical glasses; chemical durability will also be addressed.
• Basic glass selection criteria will be reviewed, including the use of the Abbe diagram.
• Range of currently available optical glasses and the methodology to customize compositions and/or processes to meet specific requirements.
• Materials with functionality outside the range of traditional optical glasses.

Who Should Attend:

• Optical Designers
• Optical Engineers
• Employees of defense contractors and associated subcontractors involved with imaging systems for whom a broad overview of optical glasses would be beneficial
• Students
