Company
Vescent Photonics, Inc. a privately held company was founded in 2002 to develop and manufacture technologies in electro-optics, tunable lasers, and electronics for precision laser control. Our patented evanescently coupled liquid crystal waveguides have the industry’s largest tunable optical phase delay enabling wide angle, high resolution 2-D beam steering. Experience as researchers at the University of Colorado (JILA) and NIST has allowed us to become a leader in non-mechanical, tunable lasers for spectroscopic sensing in emerging cold atom applications, fully supported with an accompaniment of ultra-low noise electronics for precision laser control and stabilization. The company is wholly owned by the original founders, all of which have a scientific and/or engineering background.
Facilities
We are located adjacent to downtown Denver Colorado. Our close proximity to JILA, NIST, the University of Colorado, and several other government laboratories facilitates collaborative development. Our R&D and manufacturing facilities houses an 800 square foot cleanroom for laser and electro-optic assembly, multiple optical laboratories, electronics development facilities and a machine shop. We also are corporate member of the Colorado Photonics Industry Association (CPIA), the Colorado Advanced Photonics Technology Center (CAPT), and the Colorado Nano-fab Laboratory (CNL). All of our electronics and optical assemblies, including all liquid crystal devices, are designed and manufactured in Colorado.
