Abrisa Technologies works in close collaboration with you, our customer to understand your market challenges and your program needs. Our expertise in photonics enabled applications and design capability in thin film optical coatings and technology glass combined with our volume manufacturing experience, makes us uniquely positioned to offer technical solutions and economies of scale not available from other glass or optical coating sources. Our team provides Total Solutions with single-point accountability that embody application specific optical performance, fitness-for-use enhancements and excellent economies of scale with volume manufacturability to meet your program and budget needs. Abrisa Technologies, your Total Solution Partner from concept to production.

ZC&R Coatings for Optics (ZC&R), an Abrisa Technologies company, designs and manufactures innovative precision thin film optical coating solutions for Micro-electronics, Defense and Avionics, Display, Industrial Automation, Optical Sensors and Imaging, Photonics, Medical/Dental, Life Science Analytics, and other market applications. Custom designed and standard optical coatings are available for use from 200nm in the UV up to 20 microns in the far infrared, with thicknesses of a few angstroms to 10’s of microns. We use advanced Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) processes including sputtering and Ion Assisted Deposition (IAD) e-beam to deposit optical coatings on a variety of materials including fabricated and polished glass, HIE™ aluminosilicates, wafers, ceramics, crystalline quartz, filter glass, IR materials, polished metals, and other materials of our and customer furnished supply.

Anti-Reflective (AR) Coatings

AR coatings are all dielectric single or multi-layers, designed to minimize losses & reduce ghost imaging caused by surface reflections in the UV, visible, near & far IR. They can be designed for laser lines or broadband use & range of angles.

Beam Splitters & Partial Transmitters

Beam Splitters separate incoming light into two beams. In reverse, they combine. Partial transmitters allow a portion of incoming light to pass & reject the rest. Can be metallic, dielectric or a mix & rejected light absorbed, reflected or both.

Filters Wavelength & Color

Solutions promoting color or signal separation, signal and “color” isolation, color temperature correction, aesthetic lighting effects, selective wavelength or color illumination, Dichroic color separation, filters for Heads Up Display (HUD).

Heat Control – Hot & Cold Mirrors

Cold mirrors reflect UV or the visible & transmit the infrared (heat) at temperatures to ≥400°C. Hot mirrors or shortwave pass filters (SWP) reflect the infrared & separate it from an application. ITO heated windows heat to an ambient temperature.

Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) & Index-Matched Indium Tin Oxide (IMITO)

Custom Indium Tin Oxide & Index-Matched Indium Tin Oxide (ITO/IMITO) coatings for photonics. Optimized for durability & index matched for transmittance in excess of 98%. Optional glare reducing broadband & laser line anti-reflective properties.

Mirrors & Metallic Coatings

Reflective & partially reflective coatings for laser beam steering, imaging, scanning, LiDAR, visible signal suppression, heat management of illumination sources. Metallic, dielectric & hybrid cut-to-order & custom from mm to meter sizes.

Specialty Coatings

Unique optical coatings designed to meet rigorous optical specifications as well as thermal, mechanical, weathering or bio compatibility requirements for challenging use environments as medical, dental, military, outdoor, UV/IR & high heat.

Temperature Management Coatings

Cold & Hot Mirrors assist with redirecting infrared (heat) & light where best utilized or removed. ITO coated Total Solutions are electrically activated so as to heat surfaces for anti-fogging, de-icing & maintaining temperature while imaging.

Transparent Conductive Coatings

Coatings as Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) are used to shield electromagnetic interference (EMI) while transmitting high levels of visible light or displayed image, to heat windows for anti-fogging & serve as transparent electrodes for LC based devices.

UV, Solar & Heat Management Coatings

Coated solutions designed to manage UV & IR content along with visible light spectrum from broadband lighting, solar sources & lasers. Solutions to enhance or block throughput, filter for select UV, provide solar suppression & manage heat and IR.
