10 Wasatch Photonics specializes in high performance Volume Phase Holographic Gratings (VPHGs) and Volume Phase Holographic Optical Elements (VHOEs). Their flagship products are called Dickson gratings. These are an enhanced form of VPHGs using Wasatch Photonics patented technologies and proprietary know-how. FRACTAL is partner of Wasatch Photonics for Product Distribution and future R+D. We can specify what our customer need and work with our partner to provide the required gratings FRACTAL is exclusive distributor for Wasatch Photonics in Europe 10
