Edmund Optics has introduced a line of Omega Optical DUV Transmission Gratings designed for peak performance in the deep ultraviolet (DUV) spectrum – available off-the-shelf.
These award-winning gratings were recognised with a 2025 SPIE Prism Award for their breakthrough performance in the deep ultraviolet range – underscoring their innovation and impact in optical engineering. These gratings are uniquely optimised for wavelengths as short as 190nm, a range where conventional optical components often fail due to material and efficiency challenges.
Offering excellent first-order diffraction efficiency below 200nm, these gratings enable more usable light in critical applications such as high-resolution spectroscopy, advanced lithography, and precision biomedical instrumentation. Customers benefit from better diffraction efficiencies, improved system throughput, and seamless availability – without the delays of custom sourcing.
Unlike other solutions that require special order, Edmund Optics provides these cutting-edge DUV gratings off the shelf on their e-commerce website for immediate purchase. Customers now have a streamlined path to high-performance DUV integration, backed by Edmund Optics’ extensive inventory and expert support.
