Umicore Tessella™
Wafer molding technology
Small and Smart
Umicore’s Tessella™ wafer molding technology has been developed to pack maximum optical performance in the smallest possible lens format. The Umicore Tessella™ technology produces lenses that, after dicing, can be recognized by their square format. Using Umicore’s state-of-the-art GASIR® materials and coatings, these lenses offer not only diffraction limited performance, but also offer superior optical transmission. The Umicore Tessella™ technology is the most cost-effective high-volume fabrication method for high-performance infrared lenses. Umicore Tessella™ lenses are ideal for any application that requires uncompromised imaging performance on a small footprint microbolometer. Typical applications include people counting, HVAC control, home and office safety or security, just to name a few. The square cut lenses can be supplied unmounted or in M10 mounting for easy prototyping.
