Deposition Sciences Introduces Multispectral Optical Filter Assembly

Multispectral Optical Filter Assembly

July 9, 2012

July 9, 2012 – Santa Rosa, CA – Deposition Sciences, Inc. (DSI®), manufacturer of highly durable optical thin film coatings, announces an expansion of its sophisticated optical components line, the new Multispectral Optical Filter Assemblies, or MOFAs. DSI’s advanced optical assembly technology combines individually-coated multispectral filter substrates into an array assembly. The new assemblies range from two-filter stacks to eight-filter stacks, or more. For added flexibility, the MOFAs can employ a variety of adhesives including space-qualified adhesives.

The highly durable, complex MOFAs are used in linear and planar-array CMOS detectors, medical instrumentation, commercial, government, and aerospace applications. The multispectral optical filter assemblies may be customized using a variety of substrate sizes. By combining numerous complex filters into one device, the filters, once assembled, provide distinct capabilities on each multispectral array. DSI can also incorporate stops and apertures on the part surface by utilizing advanced patterned coating technology.
