Precision Optics Manufacturer
At Alpine Research Optics our core strength is our ability to produce durable, long life, high damage threshold coatings on tight tolerance substrates, particularly in the UV. We support a wide variety of laser applications for leading edge equipment manufacturers in the semiconductor, medical, defense and industrial markets. We are also very proud to have many of the world renowned research universities and national laboratories as long time customers.
Our in-house capabilities have expanded well beyond our core strength with coatings into the mid-wave infrared spectrum and fabrication of spherical and flat with complex shapes. Our employees work tenaciously to offer reliable precision optics, remarkably consistent on-time deliveries, and complete solutions to our customers.

Alpine Research Optics (ARO) uses the highest quality materials and advanced optical manufacturer techniques to reliably create precision optics. From manufacturing to IBS technology, we can readily produce custom precision optics engineering and modified stock products. We have over 30 years of experience manufacturing laser optics. Check out our selection below.
Optical Mirrors
Optical Mirrors are designed to reflect light, including beam steering, interferometry, imaging, or illumination.
BEAM SPLITTERS
Beamsplitters are optical components used to split input light into two separate parts. Beamsplitters are common components in laser or illumination systems.
Optical Polarizer
Polarization optics are used in imaging to reduce glare or hot spots, enhance contrast, or to perform stress evaluations.
Anti Reflective Optics
An antireflective or anti-reflection (AR) coating is applied to the surface of lenses and other optical elements to reduce reflection.
Optical Windows
Optical Windows are flat, plane-parallel plates that are often used as protective barriers for electronic sensors or detectors from outside environments.
Optical Filters
Optical Filters are used to selectively transmit or reject a wavelength or range of wavelengths. Filters are used in spectroscopy, clinical chemistry, machine vision inspection, and more.
Optical Lenses
Optical Lenses are components designed to focus or diverge light. They may consist of a single or multiple elements. Optical lens are used from medical to laser processing industries.
Ultrafast Optics
These designs specifically tailored for use with ultrafast lasers with short pulse durations on the order of picoseconds, femtoseconds, or attoseconds.
