PowerPhotonic are industry leading experts in high precision low loss fused silica optics for beam/image optimization. We design, manufacture & validate beam shaping and image enhancing optics for the most demanding applications in:* Industrial Laser Material Processing (Additive Manufacturing, Cutting, Welding & Marking)* Ophthalmology and microscopy-based Imaging* Laser projection displays* Directed Energy (ITAR compliant)At the heart of all PowerPhotonic manufactured optics is a proprietary process for precision laser machining and polishing of fused silica, combined with a set of proven design and production validation techniques that enable the manufacture of freeform optical surfaces with a roughness of less than 1nm. PowerPhotonic uses this unique capability to deliver previously unattainable optical designs for optimizing laser beams – single- or multi-mode, low or high power – and to enable novel applications in high resolution imaging. Arrays of micro-optic lenses, axicons and entirely freeform structures are just some of the proven elements we routinely manufacture and supply to our customers.Our LightForge™ micro-optics fabrication service allows optical designers to create their own completely bespoke optical surface and have the fabricated part shipped in as a little as 2 weeks.
