Alluxa, Inc.

Company Description

Alluxa offers and manufactures high-performance optical thin films that are used in wide ranging applications including life sciences, research, semiconductor, and LIDAR. All of Alluxa's thin-film optical filters and mirrors are hard-coated using a proprietary plasma deposition process on equipment that was designed and built by our team. This allows us to repeatably produce the same high-performance optical thin films in all of our coating chambers.

Alluxa is an ISO 9001:2008 certified, ITAR registered, optical coating manufacturer located in Santa Rosa, California. Founded in 2007 by a team of thin-film deposition veterans, Alluxa's core team brings together decades of expertise and diverse backgrounds in deposition, automation, metrology, and optics.

Out of the Lab and Into the Wild: Is Spectroscopy Finally Ready for the Real World?
Wednesday's program at SciX 2026 kept returning to one question: can spectroscopy perform outside the controlled laboratory? Speakers took surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), mid-infrared photonics, chemometrics, and fluorescence excitation–emission matrix (EEM) spectroscopy into clinics, food plants, reactor coolant loops, brine fields, and drinking water supplies.

Mapping Oxidation in Fractured Knee Implant Posts with FT-IR Imaging
As part of our coverage of the SciX 2026 Conference, Nancy Pleshko and Petra Baylin of Temple University sat down with Spectroscopy to talk about their recent study, explaining how Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) imaging of ultra-high weight molecular polyethylene (UHMWPE) implants permits oxidation evaluation throughout the sample yielding insight into failure.
