Edmund Optics^®

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

Monolithic Reflective Beam Expanders are ideal for applications requiring broadband or achromatic beam expansion.

Polarizers are used in a wide range of imaging and research and development applications.

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

Waveplates and retarders are optical components designed to transmit light while modifying its polarization state without attenuating, deviating, or displacing the beam.

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

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

Easily add and remove optical filters from any cage system setup after viewing this quick demonstration of integrating a filter holder plate and interchangeable filter holder using #86-018 and #85-649.

LC (Low Cost) Fixed YAG Beam Expanders are simple 2-element, cost-effective solutions to beam expansion.

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

Edmund Optics® (EO) manufactures millions of precision optical components and subassemblies every year in our 5 global manufacturing facilities.

Polarizers are optical components designed to filter, modify, or analyze the various polarization states of light.

Learn about the metrology that Edmund Optics® uses to guarantee the quality of all optical components and assemblies.

Laser beam expanders consist of transmissive configurations, with Galilean or Keplerian designs, and reflective configurations, which use a series of mirrors, similar to microscope designs.

Fresnel lenses are composed of a series of concentric grooves etched into one side of a sheet of plastic. Fresnel lenses are unlike typical spherical or aspherical optical lenses.

Edmund Optics (EO) manufactures over 5 million optical components every year at our global facilities in the Americas and Asia.
