Holographix’ replication technology is suitable for reproducing any kind of surface relief structure, from macro-surfaces such as mirrors or lenses, to nano-structures with feature sizes less than 10nm. While it can take hours or days for various origination techniques to prepare each master, our UV replication process takes a matter of minutes to reproduce the optic.
Replication of Custom Optics
Basic Polymer Replication Process
Highlights of Our Replication Technology:
- High-speed room temperature UV replication process
- High repeatability of replicas (comparable or even better than production of originals!)
- Replica quality rivals that of original
- Attractive startup/tooling costs compared to other replication technologies
