Holo/Or 1X7 MS Multi-spot beam splitter graph

Introducing Holo/Or’s 1X7 MS Multi-Spot Beam Splitter

Many sensitive laser applications in microelectronic and flat panel industries require parallel ablation or scribing of lines on a flat substrate. These sorts of applications often employ Holo/Or’s Multi-Spot Beam Splitter DOEs to create the spots used for the parallel writing, along with a scanner or moving stage. For sensitive applications in the UV and green … Continue reading
