Standard Performance Optical Filters

tailored pricing for tailored specs - standard performance optical filters

Essential Performance for Budget-Friendly Solutions

Semrock® optical filters from IDEX Health & Science revolutionized the filter industry by combining the most sophisticated ion-beam-sputtering systems with our own proprietary deposition control technology, unique predictive algorithms, and volume manufacturing capability. The result is optical filters of unsurpassed performance that set the standard for the biotech and analytical instrumentation industries.

We understand that not all applications require such demanding specifications and designs. As evidenced by our Semrock Nanopede product family, selectively identifying and specifying your application’s most important requirements can result in a high-performance custom optical filter that satisfies the strictest budgetary constraints.

Utilizing our rapid prototyping manufacturing facility, our team can develop custom products and sizes using flexible work cells that are optimized for your unique system requirements. This enables prototyping capability with fast lead times at an economical price.

In the world of standard performance instrumentation for life sciences and industrial applications, achieving optimal performance often hinges on the right optical filters. We offer compelling solutions for OEMs, contract optical designers, purchasing managers, buyers, and contract manufacturers seeking to elevate their instruments with cost effective opportunities.
