Altechna: High damage threshold optics for lasers in surgery

Using lasers in surgery requires a beam to be focused on a very limited area. This ensures the surrounding tissues will not be damaged, which will ultimately lead to a faster recovery compared to other conventional methods. To achieve this, suitable optics with high damage threshold coatings at critical wavelengths are a crucial requirement.
