Laser Manufactured Precision Glass Parts for Quantum Applications

Selective laser-induced etching (SLE) allows for the manufacturing of precise 3D parts made from fused silica. The process has been demonstrated for optical, as well as non-optical applications. At OPIE 23 multiple parts for quantum applications are shown, such as ion traps and fibre chip couplers.

microstructured mirror substrates

Four mirror substrates with laser microstructured openings for various applications, e.g. spatial filters or in general geometric separation of ray bundles

Laser-based Optics Manufacturing

Displayed is a variety of different laser application for the manufacturing and processing of optical components, such as laser-based form generation, laser polishing and laser-based form correction. The processes allow for the cost-efficient manufacturing of complex optical shapes (free-form optics), as well as for high precision surfaces.

Beam splitter

This beam splitter unit contains 5 highly reflective prisms and divides an ingoing multi-kW homogenized diode laser beam in 5 partial beams of equal power and size

3D-Printing of Arbitrary Glass Parts

Selective laser-induced etching (SLE) allows for the manufacturing of arbitrary 3D parts made from fused silica. The process allows for complex 3D shapes including undercuts. Combined with a laser polishing step, clear glass parts can be manufactured for aesthetic or technical applications.
