Edmund Optics^®

Optical Windows provide protection between an optical system or sensitive electronics and an outside environment.

Confused about the differences between traditional-coated and hard-coated optical filters?

Join Ehren O'Donnell, Product Engineer, as he briefly explains our hydrophobic coatings capabilities and the differences between a hydrophobic coated and non-hydrophobic coated optic.

A protective plastic coating protects a variety of our flat optics, such as optical windows, optical mirrors, and beamsplitters, from scratches during shipping.

Join Stephan Briggs, Biomedical Engineer at Edmund Optics, as he discusses anti-reflective (AR) coatings vs filter coatings

Optical coatings are composed of thin-film layers used to enhance transmission or reflection properties within an optical system.

Acktar Advanced Coatings produces light-absorbing components and materials to control stray light and eliminate noise from specular reflection.

Optical Filters are used to selectively transmit or block certain wavelengths or wavelength ranges within optical systems.

Join Chris Williams as he briefly explains the basics of how to align a laser system onto a target.
