A look at the current market for optical coatings and some of the products and solutions available
At Envin Scientific we design and manufacture High Performance Optical Thin Film Filters for UltraViolet, Visible and Infrared Applications.
The design, manufacture and validation is carried out on-site at our purpose-built premises near Chester (UK) by an expert team with years of experience.
Veeco Instruments' Spector ion beam sputtering optical coating system has been installed at Gooch & Housego's Moorpark, California facility
The latest dark mirror coatings from Deposition Sciences improve signal-to-noise ratio and contrast in demanding optical systems, such as performance imaging, displays, and hyperspectral sensor

As microscopes become ever more powerful, a growing band of businesses are racing to make the latest technologies more accessible and more affordable, reports Rebecca Pool
Illustration of a three-dimensional crystal with various types of confining centres. (a) Crystal with four confining centres, each trapping waves (yellow) in all three dimensions simultaneously. (b) Crystal with a linear confining centre where waves can propagate in one dimension, analogous to an optical fibre. (c) Crystal with a planar confining centre where waves can propagate in two dimensions, analogous to a 2D electron gas. (Image: Vos et al.)
