Precision Coatings
Optical, EMI & RF Patterned Coatings
Leverage deep expertise in patterning optics, thin films, ceramics, and RF-transmissive materials.
EMI Gridding
Precision-patterned conductive grids shield sensitive optics and sensors from electromagnetic interference while preserving optical transmission. The two requirements pull against one another, since the same lines that block radiated energy also block light. Predictive EMI analysis resolves that balance ahead of fabrication, through metal-stack selection, grid geometry, and ultra-narrow line widths, on large and irregular surfaces as readily as flat windows.
- Performance
- Shielding effectiveness balanced against optical transmission and diffraction through grid geometry and metal-stack selection
- Geometry
- Ultra-narrow line widths patterned without discontinuity across large, irregular, and three-dimensional surfaces
- Modeling
- In-house EMI analysis predicts electromagnetic transmission performance during design phase
- Applications
- Sensor and optical windows
High Temperature RF Patterning
RF-transmissive patterning engineered for radomes, nose cones, fairings, antennas and apertures, balances electromagnetic performance against the thermomechanical and environmental requirements of the system. Conformal application to ceramic and RF-transparent substrates holds pattern integrity through Mach-regime flight and temperatures up to and greater than 1,000 °C.
- Performance
- Electromagnetic performance balanced against thermomechanical and environmental requirements
- Materials
- Dielectric, resistive, and conductive material sets for most RF-transmissive ceramic substrates
- Geometry
- Interior and exterior conformal patterning on concave, convex, asymmetric, ogive, and doubly curved surfaces, with tooling designed and built in-house
- Environment
- Sustained performance at Mach-regime speeds and temperatures greater than 1,000 °C
- Applications
- Radomes, nose cones, fairings, apertures, and RF antennas and components
