From material to finished optic, we manage the key stages of your custom optical component.
BK7, fused silica, CaF2, sapphire, ZnSe, germanium and other optical materials. We help select the right material for your wavelength and application.
Lenses, windows, mirrors, prisms, filters and other optical components. Standard or custom geometries manufactured to your specifications.
Anti-reflection, high-reflectance, bandpass, dichroic and metallic coatings. Optimized for your wavelength and power requirements.
Dimensional, surface and optical inspection according to agreed specifications. Inspection reports and material documentation provided when required.
The following ranges indicate typical capabilities. Final feasibility is confirmed during engineering review.
| Parameter | Range |
|---|---|
| Materials | BK7, Fused Silica, CaF₂, Sapphire, ZnSe, Ge, Silicon and other optical-grade substrates |
| Surface Quality | 40-20 scratch-dig standard; 10-5 and better for precision applications |
| Flatness | λ/4 standard; λ/10 and λ/20 for precision applications |
| Dimensional Tolerance | ±0.01mm standard; tighter coordinated for critical dimensions |
| Coatings | AR, BBAR, HR, bandpass, dichroic, metallic β UV, visible and infrared |
| Centration | ≤3 arc-min standard; ≤1 arc-min precision for imaging and laser |
| Quantity | From 1 piece (prototype) to volume production |
We are not a single factory. We work with a network of manufacturing partners and select the most appropriate production route for each project based on material, geometry, tolerance, coating and quantity.
This approach means your project is matched to the manufacturing capability best suited to its requirements, rather than being forced into one production line.
From single prototypes to volume production, you work with one point of contact throughout.
Learn About Our Engineering ApproachWe help optimize specifications for performance, manufacturability and cost.
Before production begins, PhotonEdge reviews your design for manufacturing feasibility. Our goal is not to change your requirements β but to identify specifications that may unnecessarily increase cost or lead time, while maintaining the performance your application requires.
Identifying tolerances tighter than your application actually requires, which increase manufacturing time and cost.
Suggesting equivalent or more cost-effective materials that meet the same optical and environmental requirements.
Reviewing coating specifications for manufacturability and suggesting alternatives that achieve the same optical performance.
Recommending the most appropriate manufacturing route based on geometry, material, tolerance and quantity.
Checking that all dimensions can be achieved with standard or specialized tooling.
Aligning inspection methods with actual specification requirements to avoid unnecessary testing cost.
Provide as much of the following as possible. A drawing is ideal, but a clear specification description also works.
