Onyx Optics, Inc. is the world leader in the manufacture of finished composite crystal and glass components for solid state lasers. Onyx’s patented Adhesive-Free Bond (AFB®) technology enables the joining of crystal or glass optical materials without the use of an adhesive or an organic or inorganic bonding aid. AFB® allows for the separation of functionalities of laser components into lasing and non-lasing regions, which is critical for high power DPSSL systems. Composite optical components manufactured using AFB® technology enable cost-effective systems of increased output power and improved beam quality.
