Outline

YAMAMURA Photonics’ one of expertise is GTMS (glass to metal seal). We do metal leads, metal ring, and other shape metals sealing by glass. Glass vacuum sealing has long history since CRT’s and electron tubes. The coefficient of thermal expansion needs to be similar between tow materials to be connected. There should be a lot of skill and experience to perform this process by YAMAMURA Photonics .
