Infrared Imaging and Thermal Imaging

VIAVI laser blocker filters are crucial for protecting user’s eyes from laser threats from range finders, target designators, or other laser devices. Laser blocker filters help personnel maintain situational awareness and overall operational effectiveness in laser-rich environments.

Features:

  • Deep Blocking
  • Sharp Transitions
  • High Photopic and Scotopic Transmission
  • Assembly and Integration Capabilities

VIAVI employs both photolithographic patterning and butcherblock assembly techniques to provide multispectral filters for applications in wavelength dispersion, order sorting, and aperture defining applications. Coupled with our Ucp-1 load-locked magnetron sputtering system, VIAVI is comfortable with many pattern and coat steps on high value substrates, including active device wafers. 

Precision Bandpass filters utilizing our patented Low Angle Shift technology provide the maximum signal to noise ratio over wide angle ranges. Depending on wavelengths of interest, either ion-assisted evaporation or magnetron sputtering processes yield durable, low defect, reliable filters for your system. Our motto is “Precision at Scale”.

Protecting the warfighter personnel and sensor systems are a top priority given the proliferation of laser systems. VIAVI Solutions high laser damage threshold and high throughput coatings deliver value in a market where failure is not an option. On the Directed Energy side, our large optics platform delivers high damage propagation threshold mirrors and anti-reflective coatings for demanding applications beyond the laboratory.

VIAVI advanced optical monitoring system enables the highest level of precision for Solar Rejection Filters, Dichroics, Neutral Beamsplitters, and Narrow Bandpass Filters. VIAVI can support low Transmitted Wavefront Error (TWE) requirements over large areas due to our deep technical knowledge and is supported by the appropriate metrology equipment, including a 1550nm tunable wavelength interferometer, and tunable laser spectrophotometers custom built in-house to map the surface of optics in reflection, transmission, and at angle.

VIAVI optical filters address two major issues for LiDAR systems for government applications: enabling a light signal to travel further and the ability for the optical filter to operate at a high level of reliability in the brightest levels of sunlight. VIAVI optical technology filters light so that the signal-to-noise ratio can be improved by as much as 150 percent, to ensure the most accurate measurements.

Anti-Reflection coatings, Dual-band filters, patterned metallization, and custom fabrication. NVG and Thermal imaging systems benefit from VIAVI precision at scale. Wavelength ranges from SWIR to LWIR and beyond.

VIAVI special effect pigments can provide nearly arbitrary visible color and tune the properties in other wavelength ranges. Please contact us to discuss your application.
