Custom Infrared Optics for Thermal Imaging, Sensing & Defense Applications

At Yighen Ultra Precision, we specialize in the design, prototyping, and manufacturing of infrared optics (IR optics) for use in thermal imaging, gas sensing, infrared spectroscopy, night vision, and advanced surveillance systems.

Our IR optical components are precisely engineered to operate across the SWIR (0.9–1.7 µm), MWIR (3–5 µm), and LWIR (8–12 µm) spectral ranges. We support custom geometries, coatings, and system integration—ensuring optimal performance in demanding IR environments.

🔹 Types of Infrared Optical Components

• IR Lenses (Spherical, Aspheric, Cylindrical)

• IR Windows (Germanium, ZnSe, CaF₂, BaF₂, Sapphire)

• Beam Expanders & Collimators

• IR Filters (Bandpass, Longwave Pass, Notch)

• Thermal Imaging Optics

• SWIR/MWIR/LWIR Corrected Assemblies

• Infrared Fresnel Lenses

• Freeform IR Optics for Compact Modules

We offer both single-element and multi-element assemblies, including coated and bonded components for hermetic or ruggedized use.

🔹 Infrared Optical Materials

We work with a wide range of IR-grade materials to suit various spectral and mechanical needs:

🔹 Typical IR Optics Specifications

We can also deliver optics with anti-fog, hydrophobic, or diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings for outdoor or military-grade usage.
