Leister Process Technologies, Axetris Division

The Axetris Division of Leister is a designer and manufacturer of micro-technology (MEMS) based components and modules in the areas of micro-optics, infrared sources for gas detection and mass-flow sensors / controllers.MICRO-OPTICS

Axetris micro-optics offering ranges from refractive micro-optic lenses and lens arrays to diffractive optical elements in silicon and fused silica, covering the entire wavelength range from UV to mid IR. Axetris serves customers from various industries such as fiber-optic communications, optical sensing, metrology, laser systems, medical applications etc. Axetris standard micro-optics products include fast and slow axis collimators for high power laser diode bars, fiber micro-lens arrays and aspheric micro-lenses and arrays for edge emitting laser diodes and VCSEL.

CUSTOM MICRO-OPTICS

Axetris solutions for OEM customers includes binary and multilevel diffraction gratings, Shack-Hartmann micro-lens arrays, custom micro-lenses and arrays in the Silicon, fused Silica and plastics materials. Our optics engineering and manufacturing team will support you from prototyping to volume production helping you to meet your specific design goals.

INFRARED SOURCES (IR SOURCES)

Axetris IR sources are micro-machined, electrically modulated thermal infrared emitters featuring true black body radiation characteristics,low power consumption, high emissivity and a long lifetime. The patented design is based on a resistive heating element integrated onto a thin dielectric membrane which is suspended on a micro-machined silicon structure.

The sources are packaged in compact TO-39 cans and are available with protective cap or with reflector. They can be fitted either with Sapphire, CaF2 or BaF2 windows.

Axetris IR sources are ideally suited for compact IR gas detection modules where a high emissivity, high reliability and low power consumption are key requirements.
