S-LAM73 which has negative dn/dT at the region of LAM and is ideal for polished lenses of Automotive cameras.

S-LAM73 is an optical glass which has negative dn/dT at the region of LAM.
Cars are used in environments where the temperature change is large from below zero (cold district) to more than 50 C (inside car in summer). In the optical system of Automotive camera lenses, it’s common that the focal length is fixed. Since many optical glasses have positive dn/dT, by combining these optical glasses with S-LAM73, it is expected that refractive index fluctuations due to temperature change can be adjusted efficiently. In addition, S-LAM73 can be used for not only Automotive camera lenses but also projectors, photographic interchangeable lenses and various applications.
(Advantages)
1.Negative dn/dT at the region of LAM
dn/dT(Dline 40℃~60℃) -0.8
2.The highest refractive index among glasses with negative dn/dT at the region of low dispersion
nd approximately 1.8
(Until now S-LAL20 had the highest nd. The nd value is approximately 1.7)
