MATERIALS – Value Chain Positions – Ecosystem for Micro-Optics

Sony DADC

Sony DADC is a leading global manufacturer and service provider for optical media. With nearly 40 years of experience in entertainment and a strong focus on quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction, we’ve expanded into polymer micro optics, offering refractive and diffractive components on full polymer wafers. Our 30+ engineers enable efficient large scale production. At our 41,000 m² site in Thalgau, Austria, we operate a 6,000 m² ISO 7 clean room with top tier security.

WOP | Workshop of Photonics

WOP is an expert in femtosecond laser micromachining, serving industrial and scientific clients worldwide. With over 20 years of experience, we deliver fully integrated solutions: from feasibility studies and prototyping to micromachining services and laser workstations. Ultrashort pulse laser capabilities enable us to work with a wide range of materials and offer ultra-high precision solutions for Semiconductors, Optical Communications, Medical, Defense, Automotive, and Scientific fields.

MATHYM

Mathym develops and manufactures oxide and fluoride nanoparticles supplied dispersed in a variety of media. Our smallest nanozirconia is an industrial nanoparticle with a size of 5nm, it modulates the refractive index of transparent materials. We also supply R&D nano-rutile for even higher refractive index enhancement.

DELO Industrial Adhesives

DELO manufactures optical-grade polymers for replication on wafer-level. Micro-optics and nanostructures are key technologies for new and continuously developed electronic components such as infrared (IR) projectors, time-of-flight (TOF) sensors and augmented reality (AR) structures.
