Where Spectra-Mat solutions fit

Semiconductor lasers

W/Cu spacers and submounts designed to dissipate high thermal loads in IR and UV semiconductor laser applications.

HB LEDs

Plated tungsten copper wafers support efficient thermal management for wafer-level packaging and cost-effective manufacturing.

RF and MW amplifiers

Bases, flanges and machined components help transfer heat efficiently in GaN and GaAs amplifier applications

Fiber lasers

Tungsten copper combiners provide rapid heat transfer and, with optical-grade surface and gold plating, avoid unwanted light absorption.

Optical benches

Brazing capabilities with ceramics support optical assemblies for high-power laser systems and related components.

Defense, telecom and industrial systems

Materials engineered for demanding environments where thermal stability, conductivity and machining precision matter.
