Institute and Center

Research Orientation: This platform provides ultra-precision optical processing and testing services for advanced grating processing, film processing, free-form surface processing, optical design, diamond cutting, ion beam etching, micro-projector, micro-Nano photoelectric sensor and relevant products as well. It also renders micro-optic electromechanical system manufacturing services, including photolithography, thin film deposition, electroplating/casting, dry etching, wet etching, smoothing, polishing, cutting, circuit soldering and other micromachining processes and surface contour observation, scanning electron microscopy, electrochemical analysis and other tests. The target customers of the platform are companies, universities and research institutes related to the ultra-precision optical manufacturing industry.

Director of the Institution: Professor Zhang Dawei graduated from the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2005. He has been doing theoretical research and technical study in the fields of optical film, ion beam technology, sub-wavelength grating, and guided mode resonance. He has undertaken 2 National Natural Science Youth Funds programs, 1 special key project of instrument from the Ministry of Science and Technology. In recent years, his research findings have been published in such important journals as Optics Express, Optics Letters, and Applied Surface Science. In 2009, he was awarded the honorary title of Shanghai Pioneer of Science and Technology. He won the second prize of Technical Invention by the Ministry of Education in 2012. He was awarded the Excellent Director of the Chinese Society for Optical Engineering in 2016.

Team Members: Zhuang Songlin, Zhang Dawei, Zhang Rongfu, Hong Ruijin, Wan Xinjun, Li Baicheng, Wang Qi, Jia Hongzhi, Jian Xianzhong, Li Zhenqing, Liang Binming, Zhang Xuedian, Li Yi, Zheng Jihong, Ma Lixin, Ni Zhengji, Cai Jinda, Sheng Bin, Zhang Huixian, Wu Yehua, Guo Hanming, Chen Wenyuan (Shanghai Jiaotong University), Zhou Changhe (Shanghai Institute of Optics and Mechanics), etc.

Ongoing Projects：

The Second Prize of Hangzhou Science and Technology Progress Award for participating in the research of High-performance Full-spectrum Spectral Analysis Instrument Development and Industrialization. Formulating three national industry standards and obtaining more than 10 patents. Providing relevant technical services to more than 100 technology companies and scientific research units, and related derivative benefits amounted to several hundred million yuan.

Typical services the platform has provided are as follows:

1. Free-form surface mirrors developed by the platform, double free-form surface mirrors, narrow-sided plane mirrors and convex mirrors, as key components, successfully applied to analytical instruments by Focused Photonics Inc. (Hangzhou), which reversed the status quo of its relying on imports of core key components.

2. The platform provides concave convex holographic gratings and echelle gratings for many well-known spectral instrument companies in Beijing and Shanghai. The output value of related spectroscopy instruments and other products amounts to around 10 million yuan.

3. The processing service of the platform on the aspherical super-large lens has also achieved remarkable results, a number of main mirrors of large-diameter optical telescopes satisfy the high technical requirements of the client companies in Shanghai.

4. The platform provides technical standard services of optical instruments inspections for customers at Shanghai and Ningbo.
