GT Optics designs its own nanostructures, builds them through lithography, and completes each product through sputter-deposited engineered material stacks — configuring geometry, materials, substrate, and application process to the threat, environment, and duty cycle of each deployment.
Every GT Optics nanostructure begins in COMSOL Multiphysics — simulated in size, shape, and angular geometry against the electromagnetic threat spectrum, environmental profile, and application constraints of its intended deployment. The design step is where performance, weight, and manufacturability are engineered in from the start.
Each nanostructure is designed with specific size, shape, and angular geometry to interact with the electromagnetic threat profile of its target application.
Nanostructure and material-stack designs are simulated in COMSOL before production, allowing performance and manufacturability to be engineered together.
GT Optics designs a family of nanostructure architectures — including micro-optics, micro-mirrors, micro-magnifiers, and absorbants — matched to each product's shielding envelope.
GT Optics products use a multi-material tech stack — engineered layers that can include metallic, magnetic, dielectric, conductive, and insulating materials — configured for the electromagnetic performance, environmental durability, and weight envelope of each product configuration.
Metallic and conductive layers engineered to interact with the electromagnetic field profile of the target threat spectrum.
Magnetic materials configured to extend performance into low-frequency and magnetic-field-dominated environments.
Dielectric and insulating layers used to isolate, tune, and stabilize the electromagnetic behavior of the stack.
Nanostructure geometry is transferred to substrate via lithography. Engineered material layers are then deposited onto the nanostructures and substrate through sputter coating. The result is a lightweight, conformable shielding film configured for its deployment class.
Nanostructure geometry designed in COMSOL is transferred to the substrate through lithography — establishing the precise physical architecture that drives the film's electromagnetic behavior.
Engineered material layers are then deposited onto the nanostructures and substrate through sputter coating, completing the shielding architecture and locking in the product's shielding envelope.
A single design and manufacturing platform is not one film with a single application method. GT Optics matches substrate selection and application process to the environment, motion profile, and duty cycle of each deployment.
Configurations engineered for aircraft, unmanned systems, and airborne mission profiles.
Configurations engineered for maritime, USV, and corrosive-environment service life.
Configurations engineered for the temperature envelope of the target deployment — data-center thermals, arctic operations, high-temperature industrial environments.
Configurations engineered for fixed installations as well as fast-moving platforms.
Retrofit and new-construction application methods for data centers, SCIFs, and critical facilities.
Component-level application methods for boards, enclosures, cabinets, cabling, and networking equipment.
GT Optics does not self-validate. Every performance claim traces to an accredited third-party report.
