Knight Optical’s Custom-Made Components Steal the Show at Photonics West

Yet another resounding success for the industry-leading supplier of premium-quality, on-spec optical components, Knight Optical has announced 2020’s Photonics West as a triumph.

From 4 to 6th February, two members of the Knight Optical USA team were on stand at the SPIE-organised event at the Moscone Center, San Francisco, California, to welcome attendees to the custom capabilities of the trusted component supplier.

This year’s event has presented us with further exponential growth for our high-quality, custom-made optical components; which a particular spike in demand for our high-performing renowned Infrared (IR) Optics.

Commenting on their popularity, USA Branch and Sales Manager, Courtney Buratczuk, said:

“All Knight Optical’s IR Optics were greatly received at Photonics West 2020; however, there was a distinct interest in our Silicon and Germanium components. Not only were visitors impressed by the ‘outstanding’ quality of these optics, but they were also enthralled by our ability to meet any specification with custom-made optical components for seamless integration with any application.

“It wasn’t just our IR Optics that garnered attention; there was a great deal of traffic on stand looking for ZnSe, Prisms, Aspheric Lensesand Beamsplitters; to name but a few. And, we very much look forward to working with brand-new customers on some of these custom-made optics – for, what will be, the most fascinating of projects.”


Rave Reviews
Courtney Buratczuk, and Technical Sales Advisor, Daniel Bousquet, received exceptional feedback from both new and existing customers regarding Knight Optical’s quality-first ethos, impressive in-house metrology testing abilities and the boundless opportunities offered by our custom-made optical components. As well as introducing new customers to the possibilities behind Knight Optical, Courtney and Daniel were also delighted to meet with a few familiar faces.

Speaking of the networking opportunities offered at this year’s event, Courtney said:

“Photonics West is one of the most-talked-about shows within the sector, and to be in the midst of a hub of photonics activity is not only inspiring but also further strengthens Knight Optical’s industry-leading status within the realm.

“Due to our global operation and thanks to high-status shows, such as Photonics West, these trade shows are fantastic opportunities to meet with long-standing customers and view some of the ground-breaking prototypes and final products that Knight Optical has helped to develop. Finally putting a face to a name with some of our customers and learning about how we have improved their supply chain practice is incredibly satisfying.”
