Fabry-Perot etalons to suit your application

Optical Surfaces Ltd. is a leading international supplier of Fabry-Perot etalons in a range of shapes and sizes up to 150mm in diameter with matching accuracies to lambda/300.

Etalons are widely used in telecommunications, lasers and spectroscopic applications to measure the wavelength of light. Recent advances in fabrication technique allow the creation of very precise tunable Fabry-Perot interferometers.

Optical Surfaces Ltd. manufactures Fabry-Perot etalons in two basic forms – air-spaced or solid. Both types can be designed for use at customer-defined wavelengths within the range 190nm to about 2 microns.

Fabry-Perot etalon pairs from Optical Surfaces Ltd. are supplied with wedge angles of 5 min of arc for smaller diameters, rising in steps to a wedge angle of 40 min of arc for diameters greater than 70 mm. Available as standard in materials including UV grade Silica and Germanium, Optical Surfaces' Fabry-Perot etalons have been supplied to some of the world's leading research institutes and also form an essential OEM component for a growing number of laser and interferometer manufacturers.

Production approved to ISO 9001-2000 and with all optics interferometrically tested before shipping the quality of Fabry-Perot etalons from Optical Surfaces Ltd. is assured.
