Company Profile

SCIOPT was established in 1981 and began offering optical design software in 1982 with OPTEC-I, the first commercial DOS based ribbon.gif (1993 bytes) optical design code.  In 1991 we introduced OPTEC-III the first optical design/Lens Design program for Windows and promptly won a Top Ten Technology award from Lasers & Optronics' editorial board for this innovative product.  

In 1994, SCIOPT obtained the exclusive worldwide license to Stanford University's Macintosh based PARAXIA laser resonator and beam propagation software and soon afterward we developed a Power Mac, and Windows version.  PARAXIA-Plus is an enhanced 32 bit version developed by SCIOPT for Win '95/'98/ NT/2000/Me/XP.

In the U.S. we also represent JCMwave GmbH, and SCIENCETECH Spectrometers.  The JCMwave software products are highly efficient Maxwell's equations solvers for the rigorous solution to electromagnetic wave interactions with sub wavelength features.  This is particularly useful in microlithography and nano-optical applications.  In California, SCIOPT represents the Abet Technologies Inc. innovative line of Solar Simulators, light sources and single channel detectors.
