CO2 Laser Lenses

Thin Film Engineering

REO Thin Film Engineering is the core technology of our company.  Collectively, our engineering team has well over 100 years of TF manufacturing and design experience.  We strive to be an extension of your own engineering and product development organization.  We leverage our experience to provide you with the most efficient and robust solutions for your component and assembly requirements.

Quality Assurance Engineering

REO processes are designed around critical Quality Assurance principals to ensure our products meet customer specifications and are manufactured correctly the first time.  

We apply this systematically to all aspects of prototype, pre-production and production processes to ensure that agreed to specifications and requirements are met.  We continually monitor and improve our process on an ongoing basis.

High Laser Damage Threshold Optics

REO consistently delivers optics with exceptional laser damage resistance characteristics because we fabricate, coat and laser damage test our products under highly controlled processes in our state of the art facility in Boulder, CO.  REO is unique because of our broad well-equipped in-house laser damage testing lab with several different laser pulsewidths and wavelengths. This vertical integration is critical because reliably achieving high damage threshold requires careful control over every aspect of the design and manufacturing process. This includes precise specification and thorough inspection of incoming raw materials, followed by shaping and polishing of components in a way that minimizes subsurface damage and contamination. We then design and deposit thin film coatings using techniques that avoid contamination and minimize electric field effects.
