Cascade Optical specializes in nanotechnology–based coatings produced through ion-assisted deposition, enabling low-temperature processing suitable for plastic fibers and other delicate substrates. This approach can yield coatings with high packing densities, enabling resistance to very high laser damage thresholds. The company also supports coating applications across a wide range of materials, including plastics, polymers, semiconductors, lenses, mirrors, crystals, metals (including diamond-turned surfaces), and ceramics.

Located in Santa Ana, California, Cascade Optical serves a research-focused customer base that includes national laboratories, universities, and NASA-related programs, providing coating development alongside manufacturing support. The company emphasizes short lead times—typically one to two weeks—and offers design-for-manufacture guidance through its engineering group to help customers begin work with just a brief consultation. With a small, specialized team, Cascade Optical maintains its focus on meeting demanding coating requirements for the nanotechnology research community.
