ATHOS

Light-years ahead in optical security and holographic packaging

Introduction

ATHOS is the ultimate laser lithography system series especially designed for holographic applications. With highest resolution, the best performance, grayscale capabilities and high throughput, it is the optimal solution for the origination of holograms, OVDs, Fresnel lenses, and much more.

Key features

  • Advanced design software HoloSuite simplifies creation of complex patterns and accelerates data transfer and exposure
  • Lateral stitching is eliminated due to InfiniTrace technology and 12-bit dynamic range (4096 levels)
  • RapidTrace technology: exceptional stage mechanics, top-notch optics, and fast grayscale exposures in real time
  • OptiFly technology based on a hybrid autofocus strategy enables working on even the most challenging substrates
  • Near-electron beam lithography level resolution
  • Optional: controlled environment within the enclosure

Benefits

Advanced hologram manufacturing

Maximum user-friendliness

ATHOS provides simple, seamless processes and workflows, from designing complex holographic patterns to
lithographic exposures. It suits all levels of experience - from beginners to highly qualified personnel.

Peak system stability and reliability

With ATHOS, you can rely on a mature and robust system engineered for stability and precision—even under the most demanding surface conditions. Consistent, high-quality results across a wide range of substrates are ensured.

A tool to address every need

ATHOS series has two product lines: ATHOS Nano focuses on highest spatial and grayscale resolution,
while ATHOS Rapid provides the best combination of deep sub-micron spatial resolution while providing great real-time grayscale exposure capabilities at an exceptionally high throughput. Both product lines offer a wide selection of stage sizes to suit your needs.

Software

Experience the flexibility and ease with HoloSuite design software

Design and execute complex patterns
HoloSuite defines the new standard in holographic master design. This design software offers a diverse set of libraries to enable the creation of complex and secure holographic designs.

2D to 2.5D patterns at your fingertips

Design and execute complex binary and grayscale patterns with flexibility and ease.

Ease of use

With this technology, you can focus on the process of creating beautiful hologram designs, rather than making diffraction calculations or computer simulations.

Broad variety of holographic effects

Access a plethora of optical effects in one software package. No need to go back and forth between third party (and expensive) scripting software.

Expandable

Easily expand the number of available libraries by adding your own proprietary micro-optical and micro-diffractive elements.

Available effects

Various stereograms, modulated depth images, rolling images, white backgrounds, microlens arrays, motheye lenses, color images, various embossed images, kinetic effects, shaped lenses, fesnel images, pyramid arrays, custom structure arrays, PLS holograms, rainbow images, and more
