Advanced AR Coatings Enable Higher Performing Optical Systems
Anti-reflection (AR) thin film coatings are used to optimize desired wavelength(s) or broad spectrum of light transmissions and reduce unwanted surface reflections. AR coatings are the most widely specified coating used in both commercial and defense applications including imaging, solar, auto, semi, medical, life science, telecom, and electronics. The global AR coatings market size was […]
Optimized Coating Designs for Polarizing Optics
Beamsplitter coatings are normally produced on plate glass or in cube format. The incident beam splits into a partially transmitted beam and a partially reflected beam, where the reflected beam is typically directed 90 degrees from the Incident and transmitted beam. Figure 1 Here we discuss a special group of beam-splitters that use polarization and […]
Optical Coatings Enhance Beam-splitter Performance
Beam-splitters are one of the most widely used components in optical systems. A Beam-splitter is an optical component that divides an incident beam of light into two or more beams by wavelength, polarization, or intensity. A portion of the beam is transmitted, while the other portion is reflected. Cube and plate Beam-splitters are two of […]
