Zephyr Spectral was founded to bring world-class physics and engineering expertise to the fusion energy, defense, and space industries. With deep roots in national laboratory research and hands-on experience fielding experiments at facilities like NIF and Z, we deliver practical solutions backed by rigorous science.
Our work spans the full lifecycle of physics and engineering projects: from experimental platform development and spectrometer design through radiation effects testing, RF systems build-out, and AI-powered workflow integration. Whether you need hardware built from scratch, a radiation test campaign executed, or AI tools deployed across your team, we bring the expertise to move your project forward.
Based in Livermore, California, we work with fusion startups, national laboratories, defense organizations, and space companies nationwide.
