In the area of Infrared (IR) optics, a constant balancing of resistivity and optical transmission is paramount to project success. Lattice Materials has developed proprietary and repeatable techniques for custom resistivity and optical transmission. The company grows crystals in-house, custom to each application if required.
Silicon and Germanium are materials of choice as optical elements in a variety of infrared applications from night vision to thermal imaging systems. Working with these materials is a specialty, due to their brittleness and the complex interplay of resistivity, transmission, and other optical properties.
Lattice has had over 20 years of success in working with just these two materials. From crystal growth to finished blanks, Lattice Materials has the most experience in the industry.
