II-VI Infrared Introduces CO Optics and Components

Date Announced: 20 Jan 2016

New components will be on view at next month's SPIE Photonics West exhibition in San Francisco.

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 20, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The II-VI Infrared Division of II-VI Incorporated (IIVI), a world leader in laser optics, today introduced a new product line of carbon monoxide (CO) optics and components.

Technology breakthroughs in CO lasers have driven increased demand for commercial applications such as printed circuit board drilling, glass and film cutting, medical procedures. The new generation of 5-6 µm wavelength CO lasers allows the mid-infrared spectrum to be competitively utilized in demanding applications due to smaller spot size, increased efficiencies, and advantageous absorption properties for glass and plastic materials processing. II-VI’s CO optics and components are key enablers of a new generation of CO laser systems.

“Our CO product line is a great complement to our existing CO2 optical products which already serve a broad customer base in the industrial, medical and semiconductor industries. With this new product line, II-VI reinforces its leading position in laser optics as CO laser applications continue to increase in material processing and medical markets,” said John Ryan, Vice President Sales, Laser Solutions Segment, II-VI Incorporated.

The II-VI CO optics and components are designed for 5-6 µm CO lasers. The portfolio includes both internal and external cavity designs comprised of Band Select Mirrors, Beam Combiners, Lenses, Mirrors, Debris Windows and F-Theta assemblies.  Single and multiple wavelength coatings as well as custom designs are available.

II-VI Infrared will showcase the new CO optics and components product line at SPIE Photonics West, Feb. 16-18, 2016, in San Francisco, CA, in Hall C, Booth # 2223.
