Applications of SCHOTT® Cavity Cap

As sensing and display technology becomes more advanced, the demand for smaller and lighter packaging for optoelectronic converters and light-guiding optics is increasing. SCHOTT® Cavity Cap is an integrated lid + spacer that provides a low-TCO packaging solution for a large number of photonic applications.

Industrial monitoring

High-speed scanning and imaging is a key element of the fast-moving inline quality monitoring of goods manufacturing. SCHOTT® Cavity Cap provides highly effective and reliable light-transmitting sensor housing for highly advanced process without the need for additional spacers. With the ability to be glued onto a range of submounts, SCHOTT® Cavity Cap also offers a choice of CTE for different applications.

SCHOTT® Cavity Cap is key to the development of autonomous driving technology

Automotive sensing

SCHOTT® Cavity Cap supports automotive sensing, delivering high light transmission in the NIR range for an increasing range of sensors, scanners, and displays. The development of autonomous driving technology also requires new disruptive light-transmitting housing solutions for the laser diodes and MEMS mirrors of Lidar systems, which SCHOTT® Cavity Cap is ideal for.
