New Polarized Dichroic Filter
WESTFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Materion Precision Optics, a Materion Corporation (NYSE:MTRN) business,
has developed a display component that will significantly advance image
projection. The new polarized dichroic filter improves brightness
performance in high-power laser and hybrid projectors used in business,
education, home theater and cinema markets.
"The new dichroic filter joins our family of innovative products for
projection display applications," commented Robert Naranjo, President of
Materion Precision Optics. "It provides a high-tech solution to the
industry need for efficient optical function within a compact structure
and leverages our decades of materials and manufacturing expertise."
The design of the dichroic
filter creates a compact light path that allows it to achieve excellent
transmittance which is of critical importance for projection display
efficiency. It consists of an optimized coating design that focuses blue
laser light sources, and has very steep cut-on and cut-off slopes. This
is essential to achieving enhanced color quality in projection display
systems.
In addition to the polarized dichroic filter, Materion produces a
variety of custom optical filters and components to meet the needs of
the projection display industry.
Materion Precision Optics, with manufacturing facilities in North
America and Asia, is a leading global manufacturer of precision thin
film coatings, optical filters and opto-mechanical systems.
Materion Corporation is headquartered in Mayfield Heights, Ohio. The
