Alfa Chemistry is an expert in designing and producing precise infrared (IR) optical components. For many years, we have offered IR optical solutions to a variety of research fields, including university research projects and aerospace businesses. We provide our clients specialized, highly accurate IR optical components thanks to our expertise in coating and polishing. No matter the bespoke optical solution, we always guarantee quality through rigorous metrology testing and 100% QA inspection to make sure that all custom products match our high standards.
Abundant Solutions
The germanium series, silicon series, zinc selenide series, zinc sulfide series, etc. are the major materials we employ. Our products are suitable for a wide range of laser equipment, optical inspection instruments, etc. Many of our bespoke infrared materials can transmit light in the visible and ultraviolet ranges as well, so they are not just confined to use in this spectrum. For instance, lithium fluoride, which can transmit wavelengths from 120 nm to as high as 6 m, is employed as a diffraction crystal in X-ray apparatus.
We can manufacture a variety of optical components to meet any specification.
- Visible light to long-wave infrared wavelengths
- Mirrors, lenses, windows, domes, and prisms
- Spherical, aspherical, diffractive, planar and free-form
In addition, we customize a variety of optical coatings to improve the optical performance of our products. For instance, germanium materials, which are frequently used in IR imaging systems, normally have transmission efficiencies of less than 50% in the 1.8~14 µm range, but these efficiencies can be increased by more than 100% by adding unique anti-reflective coatings.
