For over 60 years, PLX has been a leader in developing monolithic optics. In 1970, PLX invented the hollow, retroreflector, which were used for the NASA manned and unmanned space exploration missions. Our patented technologies help develop the Modern Boresighting Module used in the Abrams Tanks and Apache Helicopters.
PLX’s innovative Monolithic Optical Structure Technology™ (M.O.S.T). achieves superb optical stability, vibration resistance, and sub-arcsecond accuracy, contributing state-of-the-art applications for Military, Aerospace, Commercial, and Laboratory use. For instance, M.O.S.T., combined with our MEMS technology, offers ultra-high performance tracking solutions.
Integrating Inrad Optics' special processes, thin-film coating expertise using advanced methods such as plasma assist e-beam deposition, and diamond turning capabilities boost performance at extreme temperatures. Additionally, *Luxium Solutions' high-performance single-crystal scintillation materials and sapphire and garnet substrates for photonics and power electronics significantly enhance PLX's ability to develop cutting-edge optical technologies.
