Abstract
New moldable, infrared (IR) transmitting glasses from NRL and graded index (GRIN) optical materials enable simultaneous imaging across multiple wavebands including SWIR, MWIR and LWIR and offer potential for both weight savings and increased performance in optical sensors. Lens designs show the potential for significant SWaP reduction benefits and improved performance using NRL materials and IR-GRIN lens elements in multiband sensors.
