Manx TTB Mirrors Offer Broader Reflectivity Bandwidth
The TTB range of mirrors from Manx Precision Optics (MPO) is based on a specialist coating design to offer a broader reflectivity bandwidth while maintaining a good Group Delay Dispersion (GDD) and high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT). At 800 nm, mirrors from the TTB range achieve an LIDT of >= 0.45 J/cm2 in 25 fs … Continue reading
Fabrication of Optical Glass
In a white paper, entitled “Fabrication of optical glass,” Manx Precision Optics (MPO) presents a general overview of optical glass manufacture. The paper summarizes the steps of this process: Rough Shaping – Shaping of raw glass into a blank approximately 1 mm larger than the finished component Milling – Further shaping of optical surfaces to … Continue reading

Using PHAROS Femtosecond Laser for Laser Lithography
Ceramics and ceramic-like materials are essential in science and industry due to their outstanding thermal, mechanical, chemical properties. In a recent article, PHAROS femtosecond laser from Light Conversion was used for laser lithography of hybrid organic-inorganic materials with subsequent heat treatment leading to tunable-crystalline-phase 3D nanostructures with feature resolution down to 60 nm. The article, entitled “Laser additive manufacturing of Si/ZrO2 tunable crystalline phase … Continue reading
