Vescent Photonics, LLC a privately held company, was founded in 2002 to develop and manufacture technologies in waveguide, 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. Staff 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 whom have a scientific and/or engineering background as well as extensive business training.
