VPH OCT Transmission Gratings

Consistent efficiency with wavelength and polarization

World’s Most Popular OCT Gratings

Trusted, patented HD gratings

Maximise your sensitivity and scan speed with our patented HD gratings. Achieving the clearest, deepest SD-OCT images requires broad bandwidth and maximum signal-to-noise ratio, so our HD gratings are engineered for high efficiency across all polarizations, even over wide 100–200 nm wavelength ranges.

Our most popular OCT gratings are available through the online shop or we can collaborate on custom designs.
