Introduction
Beneath every coating stands a substrate that is just as important as the coating. Of course, there are many applications where uncoated substrates are needed. Our optical shops generate planar and curved substrates that meet the highest standards. Since we can manufacture etalon and interferometer flats to l /200, the normal l /10 and l /20 requirements for laser optics are easily met.

This section presents our capabilities in substrate fabrication and lists our standard stocked components. However, a large part of our fabrication is for unique components not listed here. With the ability to make optics up to 700 mm diameter, TecOptics can manufacture virtually any optical substrate you need.
