We are manufacturing custom optical thin film coatings to customer's exacting requirements in addition to our numerous standard thin-film components. The following overview presents a summary of the most common types of optical layers we produce. We coat these optical coatings mainly on plane optical substrates. Still, depending on the application's details, it is also part of our capabilities to deposit optical lenses and precision optics. Please follow the links to our coating inquiry form to enter the characteristics of your required customized coatings conveniently and to place a request:
Metallic and dielectric mirror coatings are mainly reflecting and offer high imaging quality. They base on all-dielectric or on metallic layers like aluminum, enhanced aluminum, silver, enhanced silver, gold, chrome, copper, or platinum. Optical reflection, incidence, polarization, and other characteristics are adjusted to custom requirements. In addition to our standard mirror coatings, you can use our custom optics inquiry form to request a quotation for your customized mirror coating design conveniently.
This kind of optical coatings is used for the neutral splitting of light or laser radiation or defined damping of a light source. Beamsplitters can either have dielectric or metallic coating systems. The dividing ratio is adjusted to the customer's specification by modification of the layers. The backside can be anti-reflection coated to minimize unwanted secondary reflections and to prevent energy loss. In case you can't work with our standard beamsplitter coatings, please use our custom thin-film coatings inquiry form to receive a quotation for your customized beamsplitter design conveniently.
These thin-film coatings minimize or eliminate unwanted reflections. Also, they can prevent ghost images or double laser beams from uncoated glass surfaces. The optical design is optimized for single wavelengths or a wide wavelength range (broadband AR coating) and for low surface reflection. The available transmitted light often increases by the same amount as the residual reflectance decreases.
Besides our anti-reflection coating standards, you have the opportunity to conveniently request a quotation for a custom coating by using our coating inquiry form.
Cold mirrors base on dielectric optical coatings with a high reflection in the visible range and excellent transmittance in the infrared spectrum. A cold mirror is mainly used to efficiently filter out heat or IR radiation from a light beam or an optical system. The cut-on and cut-off wavelength and the range of reflection can be shifted or modified according to the customer's specific requirements.
Besides our standard cold mirrors, you can use the coating inquiry form to get a price for your custom-designed cold-mirror optics conveniently.
Such dielectric optical filters with high transmission in the visible and high reflection in the infrared range are predominantly used to block heat and IR radiation. These filter coatings can also be used as reflectors for the infrared spectrum, such as NIR-laser-diodes (eye-tracking, e.g.) while being transparent in the visible. We can customize the cut-off wavelength, optical transmission, and reflection range of the filters. In addition to our heat-reflecting standard hot mirrors, you can use our coating request form to conveniently get a price quote for your hot mirror coating custom design.
These electrically conductive coatings have an excellent optical transmission in the visible and defined electrical sheet resistance. The surface resistance and transmission depend on the film thickness and can both be customized. Sheet-resistances may be in the range from 5 Ω/sq. up to 10 kΩ/sq. ITO-coatings with low surface resistivity are often used as infrared reflecting optics. In addition to our standard ITO-coated materials, you can use our coating inquiry form to get a quotation for your customized ITO-coated glass conveniently.
We are not limited to the coating categories and capabilities described before. In addition to the coatings listed, we are manufacturing the following additional thin-film coatings to customers specification:
