Excelitas offers high durability custom windows with exceptional mechanical, chemical and environmental durability to address the most demanding applications starting at 193nm wavelength. Utilizing our proprietary Advanced Plasma Source (APS) and Ion Beam Sputtering (IBS) coating technologies, these highly durable windows are damage resistant and available in the UV, VIS, NIR and infrared.
As the first company to commercially provide Ion Beam Sputtered (IBS) thin film coatings, we continue to expand our technology to produce the highest quality thin films performing a range of functions across the full optical spectrum from deep UV (190nm) through long wave IR (14um) wavelengths. Excelitas’ ability to produce the highest performance, lowest loss, most durable thin films across the spectrum is unmatched in the world.
Our broad selection of high durability windows in the infrared can be customized from virtually any substrate material, including fused silica, Si, Ge, ZnSe, ZnS, CaF2, MgF2, Cleartran and AMTIR.
Yes, we retrofit legacy systems (e.g., GE Frame 5, Siemens V94.2) with modern digital controllers, typically completing hardware integration within 4-8 weeks. Software migration requires additional validation time.
We recommend annual performance testing under ISO 3977-2 standards. Critical applications (e.g., offshore platforms) may require semi-annual tests with emissions compliance checks.
All rad-hard devices (e.g., FPGA, ADC) are QML Class V certified under MIL-PRF-38535 and tested to MIL-STD-883 Method 1019 for SEU tolerance. Full qualification reports are available upon request.
Our ASICs and power management ICs operate across -55°C to +175°C ambient temperatures, with derating curves provided in military temperature range (MTR) datasheets.
Our PMA parts (e.g., actuators, sensors) hold FAA/EASA Form 1 certification and match OEM form/fit/function. Installation requires SB/MB documentation per FAA AC 23.1529.
All NAS/MS fasteners include full DNA traceability: melt source (AMS 2301), heat/lot numbers, and AS9100-compliant MTRs with ultrasonic test reports.
AOG orders ship within 4 hours for stocked items (FAA-PMA, EASA Part 21G). Non-stock critical parts trigger priority manufacturing with 72-hour max turnaround.
