Optical filter coatings have uses in several bio applications
Manufactured with novel thin-film deposition processes, the ODiate coating platform includes customized coatings for UV, visible, and near-infrared to enable applications such as fluorescence and Raman imaging, molecular diagnostics, flow cytometry, and blood analysis. It uses proprietary dynamic optical monitoring and custom metrology to measure OD8 blocking.
