Anti-Reflection Coatings suit VIS-NIR regions.

Press Release Summary:




Broadband Anti-Reflection Coatings can be applied to lenses, windows, and CCDs to minimize second surface reflections. Optimized for 450-650 nm, Model 450-650-BBAR provides less than or equal to 0.6% average reflection per surface. Model 400-700-BBAR is optimized for 400-700 nm and provides less than or equal to 0.8% average reflectance. Coatings meet MIL-Spec requirements for humidity, mild abrasion, and tape tests.



Original Press Release:



New Broadband VIS-NIR Antireflection Coatings



Acton Research Corporation is pleased to introduce new broadband antireflection (BBAR) coating capabilities for the visible and near-infrared regions. Acton Research has designed a variety of antireflection coatings that include two new models:

Model 450-650-BBAR: 450nm - 650nm optimization with
Model 400-700-BBAR: coating optimized for 400nm - 700nm and providing
Acton also has BBAR designs that cover the 700-900nm region with similar properties.

BBAR coatings can be applied to lenses, windows, CCDs, and to reduce second surface reflections. Substrates typically coated include BK7, Fused Silica, and a variety of filter glasses. These coatings are durable and stable, for OEM applications and meet MIL-Spec requirements for humidity, mild abrasion, and tape tests. These new VIS-NIR designs are added to Acton's existing VUV-UV wavelength coating capabilities.
