All filters conform to US Military Environmental Specifications for Hardness, Adherence, Abrasion and Humidity and are optically tested using instruments calibrated to recognize quality standards. Send an email directly to our Thin Film Optics Division . The Thin Film Optics Division of NDC Infrared Engineering is a dedicated unit producing to both in-house and customer specifications. Hard and robust coatings and filters are produced throughout the 400 nm to 5000 nm range on a variety of substrate materials. The division uses the latest in computer aided coating design software, together with programs created by its own engineers, to arrive at the best possible design solution.
All designs are computer-modeled for optimum performance before committing to valuable plant time.
These advanced design techniques are combined with many years of practical coating experience. Precision optical and rate monitoring, coupled with state of the art process control, enables the division to produce highly repeatable manufacturing conditions for the fabrication of environmentally durable coatings to the most stringent specifications. Tooling is held for most popular sized substrates, or can be rapidly fabricated for dedicated custom work. Continuous monitoring takes place on all aspects of the divisions activities, from the initial design, through manufacturing, to the final inspection and packaging phases.
