LightPath Technologies and the University of Central Florida Enter Into Research Agreement


College of Optics and Photonics to Develop New Processing Techniques for LightPath's Moldable Infrared Glasses
ORLANDO, FL, Sep 15, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- LightPath Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: LPTH), a global manufacturer, distributor and integrator of patented optical components and assemblies, announced today that it has entered into a research agreement with the University of Central Florida's (UCF) College of Optics and Photonics ("CREOL") to develop new processes for the handling and molding of infrared glasses. Funding for LightPath's agreement was partially obtained through matching funds available from the Florida High Tech Corridor Council (FHTC).
LightPath is working to bring low cost infrared optics to the defense, military and commercial infrared markets. The Company is targeting such high-growth applications as infrared countermeasures, thermography, gas sensing and thermal imaging for commercial night vision systems. Management estimates these markets have a combined present value of over $2.5 Billion. LightPath intends on using new techniques developed under its UCF agreement to increase production volumes and reduce the cost of its molded aspheric infrared lenses.

Jim Gaynor, CEO of LightPath Technologies, stated, "Infrared technology has numerous real world applications, and sophisticated molding processes and glass materials provide the foundation to help drive down costs of optics used to build infrared devices. We are excited to have the opportunity to work with the exceptional staff at UCF to develop new processing techniques for moldable infrared glasses. By tapping into the innovative minds and resources of academia, LightPath can cost-effectively decrease its time-to-market new product lines, while we support the growth of our local economy."

The collaborative funding by LightPath and the FHTC will support a research team consisting of two post-graduate students led by CREOL Professor Dr. Ayman Abouraddy, who commented, "I am delighted to start a collaboration with LightPath which will allow us to bring our expertise in chalcogenide glass processing, developed at CREOL, to LightPath's lens fabrication procedures. I anticipate that this project will have a positive economic impact in our community, which is one of the main goals of optics and photonics research at CREOL."

.LightPath Technologies Completes $750,000 SBIR Phase II Contract From the U.S. Navy

Creates Platform to Develop Large Diameter Molded Infrared Aspheric Lenses

Press Release Source: LightPath Technologies On Monday September 20, 2010, 10:10 am
ORLANDO, FL--(Marketwire - 09/20/10) - LightPath Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:LPTH - News), a global manufacturer, distributor and integrator of patented optical components and assemblies, announced today that the Company has completed a $750,000 Phase II SBIR contract award from the U.S. Navy, under the direction of the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), for developing molding capabilities for infrared lenses using chalcogenide glass.

The completion of the SBIR has created a platform for LightPath to develop large diameter molded infrared aspheric lenses. LightPath currently sells molded infrared lenses and thermal imaging assemblies as part of the larger thermal imaging, thermography and gas sensing markets. These expanding markets have a combined estimated value of over $2.5 Billion.

LightPath CEO Jim Gaynor commented, "LightPath has enjoyed collaborating with the US Navy and US Air Force to develop new technologies for molding infrared lenses. Completion of this SBIR contract has enabled LightPath to not only bring low cost, molded infrared optics to the defense market, but also bring to market high volume infrared lenses for commercial OEM applications. The completion of this SBIR contract significantly increases LightPath's potential market share in the infrared optics markets by enabling LightPath to produce molded lenses that are larger in diameter that previously possible."
