BBT-Materials Processing Ltd

BBT-Materials Processing Ltd. is a small private technological institution dedicated to development and supply of high performance IR polarization optics and Acousto-Optical components for a wide range of applications.

The company is a worldwide leader in crystal growth and processing of high purity Calomel crystals for infrared optics. The unique properties of this optical material make it a great candidate for manufacturing of different types of IR polarization components such as polarizers, wave plates, optical isolators, and others.

Besides IR optics, BBT is also active in the field of Acousto-Optical devices and hyperspectral imaging systems. Thanks to Calomel’s exceptionally high figure of merit M2, the material is suitable for building special AO units, targeting particularly the LWIR region, where no other competitive material is available.

As a long-term (since 1969) participant in several different R&D space activities, BBT represents a skilled and experienced partner in the field of primary and applied research in space and microgravity conditions using the unique optical material of Calomel.
