Custom Patterns

Our team is highly experienced in crafting reticles, ellipses, metrology targets, and many other custom patterns for the Optometry & Opthamology industries. “We are realizing things that Opto-Line can do for us that we never even thought within our reach.” Alfredo Dubra Associate Professor of Ophthalmology, Stanford University

Opto-Line patterns on a myriad of substrates including all glass material and other IR materials including geranium, silicon, zinc sulfide, quartz, and sapphire. The largest substrate size that Opto-Line can pattern is approximately 12.5” diagonal. The smallest part that can be manufactured is about 1mm x 1mm.  

Opto-Line will strive to perfect your patterned lens projects. Our photolithography techniques are done with the utmost care and precision. Our team has over 100 years of total experience resulting in a tried and true methodology for delineating your patterns.

We are industry leaders in the manufacturing of precision reticles. Opto-Line International’s services include multi-density resolution masks, neutral density filters, reticle patterns, precision apertures, calibration test targets, EMI grids, photolithographic services, contrast test targets, and many more. Patterns can be made from various materials such as chrome, low-reflecting black chrome, gold, aluminum, SiO2 and more.

Opto-Line’s beam splitters can divide a beam of light or other electromagnetic radiation into two or more separate beams. These beam splitters are ideal for use with broadband, extended sources, such as tungsten, halogen, deuterium, and xenon lamps, and for use in monochromators, spectrophotometers, and other optical systems. As industry leaders in the manufacturing of […]
