Custom Patterns

Our durable black chrome has a Rave <5% over the visible spectrum and has been a tried-and-true coating for decades. But it is not only the coating that separates Opto-Line from other companies but the precision we can accomplish in the detailed patterns.    

We’ve worked with universities, ophthalmologists, scientists, electrical engineers, energy development companies, and a plethora of other industries to create custom patterns on their optics (or substrates procured by Opto-Line). Typically one part of a larger component, our patterned optics are critical to our customers’ final product. We invite you to learn more about our services […]

Applications for some of our products include satellite navigation systems, endoscopy, optometry, modulated contrast microscope objectives, electro-optical devices, optical system calibration, photolithographic systems, Mylar and Kapton patterning, silicon wafer blanket photo resist coatings, surveillance systems, and microscopy.

From 1951 USAF resolution test charts to almost any custom test targets imaginable, Opto-Line can produce any pattern you need with pinpoint precision and accuracy. It is still widely accepted to test the resolution of optical imaging systems such as microscopes, cameras and image scanners. For the 1951 USAF, the common format consists of six […]

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.  

Our multi-density resolution masks can be fabricated by either half tone or continuous methods as described below. Half Tone: By using very small dots and changing the amount of the dots, we can create varying densities that typically fulfill our customers’ needs. Continuous: Discrete, individual depositions of Inconel are used to create each density. In […]

Opto-Line International’s expertise in photolithography, combined with our thin film coating capability, enables us to provide our customers with the finest precision patterned optics…often the most complex and demanding.

A beam splitter is a device for dividing a beam of light or other electromagnetic radiation into two or more separate beams. Offering a distinct advantage over standard dielectric beamsplitters, Polka-Dot Beamsplitters have a constant reflection/transmission ratio over a large spectral range and are ideal for use with broadband, extended sources, such as tungsten, halogen, […]
