CUSTOM DESIGN AND FABRICATION

At Phoebus we use an inter-disciplinary approach to develop custom-designed OPTICAL and RF IMAGING DEVICES that fit our customers' needs.  Phoebus scientists design and make devices that span from the OPTICAL to RF  for a variety of applications:

  • Imaging  
  • Sensing  
  • Detecting  
  • Filtering

Phoebus uses high-speed modeling software (CST, HFSS and ANSYS) and precision fabrication tools to focus on maximum performance.  Phoebus Engineers work closely with our customer to develop a metamaterial design that that suits their needs.  Phoebus can also provide customer support to integrate the design and simulation studies into the customer's technology.
