OptiSource has over 120 years of combined experience in all facets of optical manufacturing. They offer an extensive range of high energy laser mirrors, beamsplitters, partial reflectors, antireflection and broad-band antireflection coated windows. A full catalogue can be downloaded from the Documents tab above. OptiSource have a large inventory of stock BK7 and Fused Silica components and can coat to your requirements in 1 week.

Polarising Optics A strong emphasis on polarising optics means that Optisource are an excellent choice for waveplates, polarisers and rotators. Zero-order waveplates are available as an optically contacted, air-spaced, or glued assembly with ring mounting option. Low-order waveplates are available as an alternative to multipleorder waveplates when higher retardation stability is required.
