Large format flat optics are essential components in various high-tech industries. These optics are used in applications ranging from scientific research to advanced manufacturing processes. The demand for precision, quality, and scalability of these optics is growing as industries evolve and technologies advance. This white paper explores the current and future needs for large format […]
What is the definition of thin? That depends on who you ask and what their capabilities are. At Sydor Optics, our definition of thin wafer processing is around 500 microns, but we like to work on the ultra-thin side. We consider ultra-thin at 100-200 microns in overall thickness. To put this thickness into context, the […]
Companies that produce leading edge technologies for military and defense, need high quality windows for their applications. These windows are required to be incorporated into various types of equipment and function in many different environments such as aerospace and harsh regional terrains. Sourcing these windows can be challenging due to the different materials that are […]
What are Optical Windows? Optical windows, by function separate two environments for the purposes of either chemical, environmental, mechanical, thermal purposes, or a combination thereof. Windows range in a variety of sizes from just a few mms in diameter to meter-class optics. With optical windows, the key specifications involve transmitted wavefront, cosmetics, and dimensional requirements. […]
Plano optics are optics that have flat surfaces, and generally perform three main functions: they transmit light (windows), reflect light (mirrors) and fold light (prisms).
