NanoOpto Corporation, who is applying novel design methods and proprietary nano-fabrication technology to produce a broad range of unique optical components that enable higher quality, low-cost optical components and systems, today announced general availability of its SubWave Infrared An invisible band of radiation at the lower end of the visible light spectrum.

Target applications for the SubWave IRCF include digital camera modules for cell phones, general consumer electronics digital imaging applications, and security cameras. The SubWave IRCF enables improved picture quality when used in manufacturing as a drop-in drop-in

 replacement for current IRCF technologies in existing digital camera modules. Optical circuit designers also can use it as the basis for new, more compact camera module architectures.

The SubWave IRCF implements NanoOpto's proprietary nano-optic design principles to produce a device with high transmission of visible wavelengths, a sharp cut-off at the boundary with the rejection region, high rejection of infrared wavelengths, and a very low edge shift. In combination, these performance attributes enable improved digital image quality. Currently available as a standard device is the SubWave IRCF ES22, with a 22nm edge shift for a change in incidence angle from 0(degree) to 30(degree), (greater than)93% average transmission from 420nm to 625nm, a cut-off dropping from (greater than)90% transmission to (less than)5% in less than 30nm centered around a half power point of 650nm +/- 10nm, and (less than)2% average transmission in the infrared from 675nm to 1000nm. The SubWave IRCF is available diced to customer specific sizes, and as 100mm x 100mm sheets.

"The SubWave IRCF ES22 device, targeted to the rapidly growing digital camera module market, is an exciting first entry in NanoOpto's optical filter product family," said Hubert Kostal, NanoOpto's Vice President for Marketing and Sales. "More generally, NanoOpto's design techniques and manufacturing processes can be applied to meet customer application-specific requirements for high quality filters for arbitrary wavelength ranges and for a broad range of substrates."

About NanoOpto

NanoOpto Corporation is applying proprietary nano-fabrication technology to the rapid design and high-volume manufacture of nano-optic devices for optical components and systems for consumer electronics, commercial, and communications applications. The company's nano-meter scale optical function design capability combined with wafer-scale manufacturing methods delivers optical components that allow more rapid prototyping Building a part one layer at a time using a method of additive fabrication such as 3D printing. Such parts are used for concept modeling to determine if the product design meets the customer's expectations. , higher performance, and lower overall system cost. Both independently and with industry partners, NanoOpto uses its technology to produce superior versions of standard optical components and new classes of integrated optical subassemblies for both custom and general applications. The company has received financial backing from leading venture capitalists Venture Capitalist
