Optikos, LLC

📢We have an important announcement to share: Optikos, LLC has acquired Omega Optical, bringing together complementary expertise across optical design, fabrication, thin film coatings, filtering, diffractive gratings, infrared optics, and system level metrology. What does this mean for you? You're one call away from accessing 360° optical capabilities, an expanded portfolio, and having one integrated partner supporting your project and vision. This strategic acquisition creates a vertically integrated optical platform designed to help customers move from design through manufacturing and metrology with greater efficiency and technical continuity. Together, Optikos and Omega Optical will create a more complete optical workflow for mission-critical applications across Aerospace, Defense, Life Sciences, and Semiconductor Manufacturing, among others. We are excited about what this next chapter means for our customers, our teams, and the future of optics and photonics.

Fresh off the press for the Life Sciences & Diagnostics community! 🔬 We are proud to officially launch our newest white paper, "Illuminating the Dark for Diagnostics," developed in strategic partnership with Novanta Inc. When building high-precision diagnostic instruments, optical subsystem performance is crucial. And this performance can only be achieved with the right technology and the right teamwork processes in place. In this white paper, our engineering teams detail how Optikos and Novanta partnered to develop a multi-channel fluorescence imaging system that balances both performance and cost. Through close collaboration, we applied proven techniques—including Fab-Fit Manufacturing, Alignment Turning, and a 1.5 Tube Lens Architecture—to overcome complex challenges in fluorescence imaging. Whether you are designing next-generation point-of-care devices or optimizing complex laboratory instruments, this paper offers actionable technical insights for your development pipeline.
