The history of computer-aided tools for optical coatings design can be traced back more than
half a century, and its first decades can be found in several texts on thin film optics [1–6]. The …

We demonstrate a Complex Waveguide Bragg Grating (CWBG) which can be designed to
generate an arbitrary transmission spectrum. A comprehensive design method, based on …

To improve the color gamut of a liquid-crystal display (LCD), we propose a bandpass filter
that is added to the backlight unit to optimize the backlight spectrum. The bandpass filter can …

Thin-film coatings are universal on optical components such as displays, lenses, mirrors,
cameras, and windows and serve a variety of functions such as antireflection, high reflection …

A modified planetary rotation system has been developed to obtain high uniformity optical
coatings on large substrates in an ion beam sputter coater. The system allows the normally …

With the rapid development of modern science and technology, the application of infrared
(IR) optical thin films is increasingly widespread, including in aerospace, autonomous …

Two algorithms used for the on-line and off-line characterization of multilayer optical
coatings are experimentally compared using test samples produced by two different …

Virtual deposition runs have been performed to estimate the production yield of selected
oxide optical interference coatings when plasma ion-assisted deposition with an advanced …

In this paper we study the wavelength selection process for optical monitoring of thin film
filters. We first discuss the technical limitations of monitoring systems as well as the criteria …

Determination of actual parameters of manufactured optical coatings (reverse engineering of
optical coatings) provides feedback to the design-production chain and thus plays an …
