Plano optics are widely used in:
They serve as protective windows, sealing elements, beam split substrates, or optical carriers within complex assemblies.
Plano optics are flat optical components designed to transmit, reflect, filter or modify light within an optical system. Depending on the application, their performance can be determined by factors such as material, surface quality, flatness, parallelism and optical coating.
Physix supplies plano optical components for applications ranging from imaging and sensing to laser systems and other high-performance optical equipment.
The performance of plano optics depends on more than the geometry of the component. Material selection and optical coatings can have a significant impact on transmission, reflection and overall system performance.
Physix provides plano optical components in a range of optical materials and can combine them with application-specific coatings for different wavelength ranges.
