Silicon (Si) is a widely used optical material for near-infrared and mid-wave infrared applications. Its combination of good infrared transmission, high refractive index, low density, excellent thermal conductivity and strong mechanical properties makes silicon attractive for lenses, windows and other precision IR optical components.
Physix supplies custom silicon optics manufactured according to customer drawings and optical specifications. Components can be produced in a wide range of geometries and dimensions and supplied with optical coatings optimized for the required infrared wavelength range.
Silicon is a crystalline semiconductor material with several properties that make it particularly useful in infrared optical systems.
Key advantages include:
Custom optical components and assemblies, manufactured to your specifications and reliably supplied at scale.
