Edmund Optics® is an industry leader in superpolishing optics for ultra-low surface roughness. Superpolished optics minimize scatter and are ideal for laser optics applications where throughput is critical. This technology complements Edmund Optics’ low-loss coatings, which utilize ion beam sputtering (IBS), because coating performance is often limited by the roughness of the glass substrates. Our expert coating and manufacturing engineers can develop a customized solution for your system and guide you throughout your entire product development process. World-class metrology ensures that all superpolished surfaces meet your application needs. What can we make for you?
