Our Technology
Our manufacturing facilities use state-of-the-art coating chambers in protected cleanroom environments. We are currently expanding to meet increasing demand and planning for continuing growth.
Ion Beam Sputtering, the industry gold-standard thin-film process, deposits low-loss, precise-thickness, and reliable optical-thickness layers. Semrock has made it viable for high-volume production using our proprietary process and optical monitoring technology.
