Buying Micro-optics

Top-level product category: optical components and devices

Related product categories: diffractive optics, microelectromechanical systems

Micro-optics encompasses components such as microlenses and miniature diffractive optical elements. These tiny optical components are crucial in applications like optical fiber communications, miniature imaging devices (e.g., for endoscopy), and laser beam shaping and homogenization.

Making Good Purchase Decisions

RP Photonics helps you to not only to find all relevant suppliers, but also to make good purchasing decisions.

NEW: Structured Decision Process

We recommend that you apply best practice by using the following structured process: Go through the following expandable sections, complete the form and finally come to a purchase decision. You can then print that to a PDF for documenting the process.

(Various further improvements of this feature will come soon.)

1. Learn about the technology

It is important to sufficiently understand the technology before buying.

With its comprehensive resources, RP Photonics helps you to well prepare purchase decisions:

2. Define your requirements

It is important to fully understand and define your requirements before you buy.

We recommend that for your preparation and for inquiries to suppliers, you draw up a list of clear specifications according to your specific needs:

To help you, we have already listed some aspects we recommend you consider when buying micro-optics. Of course, there may be other aspects that are relevant to your specific case.

Otherwise, you will need to talk to your technical colleagues.

If you check this, the criteria will be inserted into the inquiry mail if below you use a button titled "Get quotation".

If you cannot sufficiently clarify your requirements, you may want to get technical consultancy from RP Photonics.

3. Find suppliers

We suggest three steps:

  • Below, you can find our list of suppliers for micro-optics. Use the checkboxes to mark possibly suitable suppliers.
  • The selected suppliers will appear below this list, along with your list of specifications. You can then indicate which specifications they meet according to your research.
  • Based on the results, you can finally choose a supplier that is hopefully a good enough fit.

Micro-optics, which are between a few micrometers and a millimeter in size, are difficult to handle throughout the whole coating process. OPTOMAN, by solely concentrating on Ion Beam Sputtering (IBS) technology and mastering it, is capable of manufacturing IBS-coated micro-optical systems with low absorption transmissive coatings, which pushes the overall efficiency to the new levels. On fast axis collimators (FAC), for example, low absorption coatings minimize the unwanted effects originating from the heat generated by the laser diode, which ensures environmental stability while maintaining the desired optical configurations.
