Where to Buy Ultraviolet Optics

Edmund Optics is a premier supplier of UV optics including mirrors, lenses, filters, and beam expanders. We work with ISO 9001 certified and MIL-spec quality systems, and use a wide range of metrology including interferometers, cavity ring-down (CRD) spectrometers, Shack–Hartmann wavefront sensors, profilometers, and coordinate measurement machines (CMMs). We provided guaranteed laser damage threshold specifications.

UltraFast Innovations (UFI) has a range of dielectric mirrors, some of which cover parts of the ultraviolet region. For example, we have XUV (extreme ultraviolet) and soft X-ray multilayer mirrors which are suitable e.g. for at the second pulse generation and pulse shaping based on high harmonic generation (HHG). Our design know-how and application experience gained through a strong collaboration with numerous scientists within these fields allows us to provide custom support for the planning of your setup and the realization of advanced unique experiments.

LASEROPTIK offers excimer optics coatings of various types – anti-reflection (VAR), high reflection (HR), thin-film polarizer (TFP) and variable attenuator (VA). This can be done for many UV wavelengths like 157 nm, 172 nm, 126 nm and others.

Knight Optical has been providing optical components suitable for UV applications for many years. By utilising substrates that transmit into the UV waveband or applying a coating that enhances the optics performance in the lower wavelengths optics can be designed to work in these lower wavelengths. Substrates include UV fused silica, calcium fluoride, magnesium fluoride, lithium fluoride, calcite, and sapphire. Optics include windows, lenses, mirrors, and filters. Knight Optical has stock and custom options available for our customers.

OPTOMAN can manufacture custom dielectric thin films and high-power laser optics for UV applications starting from 193 nm. Various type of coatings – anti-reflection, thin-film polarizer, broadband or laser line high reflectivity – can be optimized for your application.

See us at OPIE ’23 in Pacifico Yokohama, Japan, April 19–21 and ILAS 2023 in Daventry, UK, March 22–23 (booth 26)!

Shanghai Optics custom-made optical components are designed with specific substrates, custom coatings to optimize the performance in UV, visible, SWIR, MWIR, LWIR wavelength. With the help of state-of-the-art metrology, Shanghai Optics is committed to high quality and top performance optical components.

Universe Kogaku offers UV lenses and lens design for electronics, optics, medical and precision industrial applications. For example, we have deep UV lenses optimized for 250 nm wavelength, available from stock with focal lengths from 6 mm to 105 mm.

We have designed and manufactured these lenses as a reasonably priced solution to the growing need for imaging outside the visible spectral region. Owing to the broad transmission range of the elements, this family of lenses can transmit well in the infrared spectral region as well.

EKSMA Optics has substrates and finished optical components for the ultraviolet – windows, lenses and mirrors made from lithium fluoride (LiF), calcium fluoride (CaF₂), barium fluoride (BaF₂) and sapphire (Al₂O₃) for laser and optical instruments applications in the UV wavelength range.
