OPTICAL METROLOGY
The HASO, our Shack Hartmann wavefront sensor, has become a benchmark tool in optical metrology and laser beam characterization. The level of performance offered by our HASO family of sensors permits to perform reliable characterization of any type of component, at any wavelength, in any environment. Imagine Optic has the expertise to address any measurement challenges and provide customized solutions for scientific and industrial applications.
HIGH POWER LASERS
Adaptive Optics is a technology critical for the operation of Ultra-High Intensity Lasers. It allows a laser to reach its maximum intensity on target while at the same time protecting the installation. This application of AO is a core activity at Imagine Optic. Since our creation, we have innovated on every part of this technology. Now, we are delivering mature and high performance AO solutions based on the association of the HASO wavefront sensor, ILAO Star mechanical deformable mirror and WaveTune/Pharao software.
MICROSCOPY & BIO-IMAGING
Optical components inside the microscope (the objective, various lenses and mirrors) and the biological sample itself induce aberrations that alter the performance of the microscope. Imagine Optic has developed a number of solutions where adaptive optics can be applied to improve the contrast and resolution in multiple fluorescence microscopy modalities.
X-EUV
Optical metrology and adaptive optics in the X-EUV are extremely demanding because of the properties of light in those short wavelengths. Since our creation, we have been innovating in this field, ultimately designing at-wavelength the HASO HXR & HASO EUV dedicated to adaptive optics and optical characterization of light sources and components.
