Windows & Prisms

SCHOTT Lighting and Imaging offers high tech materials and components for enabling the defense and security industry to develop night vision, display, sensor, and other technologies that are smaller, lighter, and more effective.

Abrisa Technologies provides multiple technologies/processes to support your glass/optics shapes, surfaces, edging, and hole drilling requirements. Depending on glass types, thicknesses, hole diameter, and edge quality; Abrisa Technologies can choose between CNC machining, opposed edge drilling, or abrasive material removal or sandblasting to meet your specific glass fabrication requirements.

Precision Optics Corporation can custom manufacture prisms with tolerances to .01mm, <10/5 scratch/dig, λ/20 flatness, <5 arc second parallelism, +/- 0.1mm; 0.2mm to 150 mm diameter, and +/- 0.02mm (and as thin as 0.2mm) thickness.

Ross Optical offers a variety of prism types, including right angle, equilateral, dove, amici, wedge, penta, and retroreflectors, as well as plate and cube beamsplitters. This page provides an overview of these offerings.

Prisms and wedges by IRD Glass are finished to exacting finishes and can be coated with anti-reflective, mirror, band-pass, and other thin film coatings.

OPCO’s manufacturing process includes CNC fabrication, precise metrology, and testing processes to develop high quality, precision prisms with tolerances to 10 microns, surface quality to 10-5, and surface accuracy to Lambda/20.

OPCO’s precision windows are available in 400mm diameter (standard) and 2mm (micro optics) diameter configurations. They offer tolerances to 10 microns, centration within seconds, and surface accuracy to Lambda/20.

Littrow dispersion prisms are used to limit lasing to a specific wavelength in many optics applications. This is ideal for laser cavities, spectrographs, and other optical systems in which it is critical that a specified wavelength not be exceeded when a sample (tissue or otherwise) is subjected to a laser’s light.
