Symphotony Co., Ltd. has recently commenced the import and sale of "ORISANDO®" products, a brand of space-variant retarders (SVR) developed by Workshop of Photonics (hereinafter, WOP Co.), a Lithuania-based photonics company.
WOP Co. is engaged in prototyping quantum photonic chips (laser processing) and developing optical elements (such as polarization control) required for quantum computer development, as well as prototyping research devices. With femtosecond laser microfabrication technology at its core, WOP Co. provides products for quantum computers and other advanced laser application fields, including laser optical elements and beam control technologies, to research institutions and industrial applications worldwide. They are a highly important supplier for researchers and engineers seeking to improve laser beam quality and enhance processing precision.
WOP Co. has launched the special optical element brand "ORISANDO®," which is indispensable for next-generation laser processing and optical metrology, by leveraging its advanced femtosecond laser processing technology to create ultrafine patterns inside glass. ORISANDO® is a space-variant retarder from WOP that achieves polarization control, beam shaping, and phase manipulation with high durability by inscribing nanostructures inside fused silica using microfabrication technology. The following four representative products are available:
- S-Waveplate
This is a polarization conversion element that converts linear polarization into radial/azimuthal polarization and circular polarization into an optical vortex. It features a high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT), making it suitable for high-power laser applications.
- Higher Order S-Waveplate
An extended version of the S-Waveplate. It can convert linear polarization into higher-order polarization patterns and circular polarization into optical vortices with higher topological charges.
- Flat Axicon
A representative product in the ORISANDO beam shaping series, this element converts a Gaussian beam into a Bessel-Gauss beam.
- Flat Top Converter
This is a beam shaping element that transforms the spot profile of a Gaussian beam into a Flat-Top (Top-Hat) beam with a uniform energy distribution.
For example, in addition to converting polarization states, the S-Waveplate contributes to advanced control of beam characteristics related to laser focusing and processing properties. At 1030 nm, a transmittance of 94% is shown without AR coating, and a feature is its compact implementation of polarization conversion functions without the need for additional complex optical elements. Therefore, it is expected to be utilized in a wide range of fields, including research and development applications, industrial laser systems, polarization control, beam shaping, and advanced laser processing.
Our company introduces various products in the laser application field, including WOP Co.'s special optical elements and laser processing-related products. We can propose optimal optical solutions tailored to our customers' needs, from research and development to industrial applications. We also handle other products from WOP Co., as well as products from over 300 overseas manufacturers and more than 100,000 laser and optical related products.
