Glass diffusers - ground These Ground-glass diffusers are used for scattering incoming light and reduce directionality in the beam. Ground Glass Diffusers give a diffusion angle of ± 10º and are useful for focusing screens and for weak diffusion in illumination systems. Ground Glass Diffusers are listed with three available materials, LEGB, B270 and UV Fused Silica (see materials data). Anti-Newton glass is also listed here which gives the weakest diffusion effect. This lightly-etched glass is used to support film enlargers etc. without interference rings (Newton’s rings) appearing.
