Practical Equipment Materials And Processes For Optical Thin Films

This book deals with the typical equipment, materials, and processes used in the fabrication/production optical thin films. It focuses on the practical elements needed to actually produce optical coatings. This is an essential adjunct to the necessary design, monitoring, and control which is also required.

This book deals with the typical equipment, materials, processes, monitoring, and control used in the practical fabrication/production of optical thin films. It focuses on the practical elements needed to actually produce optical coatings.

Providing insider viewpoints and perspectives unavailable in any other text, this book presents useful guidelines and tools to produce effective coatings and films. Covering subjects ranging from materials selection and process development to successful system construction and optimization, it contains expanded discussions on design visualization, dense wavelength division multiplexing, new coating equipment, electrochromic and chemically active coatings, ion-assisted deposition, and optical monitoring sensitivity. Furnishing real-world examples and know-how, the book introduces Fourier analysis and synthesis without difficult mathematical concepts and equations.

The Handbook of Thin Film Process Technology is a practical handbook for the thin film scientist, engineer and technician. This handbook is regularly updated with new material, and this volume presents additional recipe-type information (i.e. important deposition system details and process parameters) for optical materials.

Practical, user-oriented reference for engineers who must incorporate and specify coatings for filters, antiglare effects, polarization, or other purposes in optical or electro-optical systems design. It focuses on preparation techniques and characteristics of commercially available products and provides information needed to determine what type of filter is needed to solve a particular problem, what its limitations are, and how to care for it.
