If diffractive optical elements are used at low and medium laser power, it is not always necessary to use expensive fused silica elements because plastic elements may be sufficient.

Holo/OR offers plastic DOEs in different materials: polycarbonate, PMMA, Zeonex, and Zoner. They are produced in large quantities using an injection moulding process.

Custom Elements
Plastic DOEs are advantageous in systems that are mass produced. As most customers will require bespoke optics Holo/OR offers inexpensive tooling and low production costs - see for yourself!

Adaptation of Existing Designs
Do you already have a DOE design manufactured on a fused silica element?  As long as it is physically possible, this design can be adapted to a plastic DOE design.

Standard Designs
Multi-spot DOEs and homogenisers are currently available as standard elements for the wavelengths 850 nm and 532 nm.

Your Own Beam Analysis
For evaluation purposes, Holo/OR uses software developed in-house, and so you will be able to obtain a data file for the DOE with your quotation. This file can then be integrated into your own software (Zemax or Lighttrans) for further simulations.
