SOC began the research of coatings for dielectrics early, established coating technology for high-power lasers first in Japan, completed ultra high damage resistance UV mirrors far ahead of the international standard, and achieved other major accomplishments. It is called the "SOC of coating technologies" with these achievements. SOC executes strict quality evaluations using loss meters capable of measuring minute losses as small as 1 ppm, a laser durability evaluation system with excimer and YAG lasers, etc. SOC enjoys incomparable reliability as a leader in laser optics.
Making full use of very precise polishing technology according to substrate materials and original coating and evaluation technology based on rich experiences, SOC develops and manufactures high-performance and high-quality optics to meet customers' needs for vacuum UV and infrared rays. |

SOC supplies highly stable and long-life diode pumped solid-state lasers (DPSSL) that uses Nd:YAG and/or Nd:YVO4 as gain crystals. Various wavelengths from 473nm to 1064nm, and various powers from 10mW to 8W are available. SOC also supplies direct diode lasers that emit a beam-shaped and stabilized laser from a laser diode with a wavelength of 375nm, 405nm, 445nm, 488nm, 642nm, or 785nm.
These lasers are applicable to a wide range of fields including bio-technology, precise measurement, printing/plate making, semiconductor/liquid crystal inspection, Raman spectroscopy, confocal microscope, and scientific application.
