What we’ve done…
To support the development of electro-optical systems, the EOC has established significant internal capabilities for the design, fabrication, and test of optical components. We work with our sponsors to analyze initial requirements; to design electro-optics and related components; and to develop systems and sub-systems for military and aerospace applications.
Compact high performance wide FOV prototype optics for ISR.
Complete in-house optical design and analysis capability using ZEMAX.
Where we’re going…
1:1 Relay Lens
As EO systems continually become more complex, we will add capabilities in the design and assembly of complex optical systems. Utilizing our diverse expertise in optical design, fabrication, focal plane arrays, signal processing, and system design and deployment, we will provide comprehensive low-cost solutions for EO systems.

Optics Characterization
What we’ve done…
Multilayer Graphene on) SiC(0001)
At the EOC, we work to provide our customers with unparalleled expertise in optical characterization. We offer environmental testing, performance and system testing, reliability testing, radiation effects testing, physical inspections and failure analysis. One of the items that we have pioneered is the use of a Raman spectrometer for characterization. This is a custom-built Raman system using the full line of Mitutoyo objectives and a 1.3m McPherson spectrometer. The Raman system is ideal for measuring temperature at spatial resolutions unachievable by other methods, measuring stress within material and the quality of the material. In addition, we have the following:
- MTS nanoindenter
- Zygo GPI 4″ interferometer
- Zygo NewView white light interferometer
- Zeiss contact profilometer
Where we’re going…
We will continue to provide customized testing based on internal system fabrication requirements and customer needs, while expanding the use of leading-edge technology in all phases of characterization. This reduces the risks and shortens the development cycle associated with the introduction of new systems and components to the Warfighter.
