Crystal Optics

We grow, orient, fabricate, finish, coat, and mount beta barium borate (BBO), cadmium sulfide (CdS), cadmium selenide (CdSe), potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP), potassium dideuterium phosphate (KD*P), and tellurium dioxide (TeO₂) crystals in housings with apertures from 3 mm to larger than 300 mm.

Extensive facilities for transmission and reflection interferometry, as well as contrast ratio measurements are used to maintain excellent quality. We can measure insertion loss, uniformity of birefringence, and other characteristics upon your request.

From prototypes to full-scale production of crystal optics

We have the ability to produce single prototypes and the manufacturing capacity to deliver optical crystals by the thousands. We can support your needs from commercial off-the-shelf products to customized complex solutions to meet your most demanding optical requirements.

Crystal Boules

We cultivate and offer structurally flawless large boules devoid of defects, striations, or inclusions. Our boules boast an exceptionally low dislocation density, with sections entirely free of dislocations. With our oversized boules, we're capable of crafting exceptionally large optical elements.

Nonlinear Crystals

Our crystals are some of the world’s best from a quality perspective, and they’re also the market’s most extensive range, with a huge selection of coating types. Our nonlinear crystals are cut out from the as-grown crystal boules and polished using dedicated processes to improve the optical damage threshold.
