Core applications

Our products

RH-PSC

Radiation Shielding Coating

Protects space solar panels with advanced radiation hard optical materials designed for harsh orbital environments including electron, proton, gamma ray and atomic oxygen. Built for photovoltaic surfaces exposed to radiation, thermal cycling, and long-duration orbital missions.

Terrestrial

Photonic Smart Coating

Enhances terrestrial solar panel efficiency by managing heat, light, and surface energy behavior. Applies photonics and plasmonics principles to improve solar performance in ground-based environments.

Agro

Spectral Management Coating

Optimizes light transmission for controlled agricultural environments and specialty growing systems. Designed for greenhouse and indoor agriculture applications where spectrum control affects growth outcomes.

Technology platform

Radiation hardening,
without complexity (RH-PSC)

A thin optical coating layer engineered to protect solar surfaces, preserve usable light, and support stronger long-term performance.

01

Radiation hardened

Designed to help shield photovoltaic surfaces from harsh orbital radiation exposure.

02

Better power output

Maintains useful optical transmission so solar assets can keep converting light efficiently.

03

Lower YoY degradation

Built to support longer-term panel performance by reducing degradation over time.

04

Thermal control

Rejecting long wavelength IR radiation reducing temperature of solar panels.

Mission environments

Built for every orbit

AdaptiveWaves coating systems are designed for the radiation, thermal cycling, and lifetime demands of space solar assets.

01

VLEO180 km

Very Low Earth Orbit intensifies atomic oxygen, drag, and thermal cycling on solar surfaces. AdaptiveWaves radiation hard photonic coatings are built to protect photovoltaic assets operating closer to Earth.

02

LEO480 km

Low Earth Orbit exposes photovoltaic systems to persistent radiation, thermal cycling, and performance degradation. AdaptiveWaves radiation shielding coating is designed to protect space solar panels while preserving optical transmission.

03

MEO2,000 km

Medium Earth Orbit demands durable optical materials that can survive longer missions and harsher exposure profiles. Our coating approach combines quantum optics, plasmonics, and photonics to manage energy and radiation effects.

04

GEO35,786 km

Geostationary missions depend on long-life solar performance. AdaptiveWaves develops radiation hard coating solutions for resilient photovoltaic surfaces in demanding orbital environments.
