Anti reflective coatings offer enhanced optical performance by reducing reflection and glare. An anti reflective ITO coating provides the optical transparency and conductivity of an ITO coating with the additional benefit of anti reflection.
The elimination of reflections can increase visibilty, such as on an LED screen in daylight. Another example is a coating on eye glass lenses that makes the eyes of the wearer more visible to other people.
The reduction in reflection can also improve contrast of an image by the elimination of stray light, as in telescopes and microscopy.
For an uncoated glass component, typically 4% of incident light would be reflected at each surface. When an anti-reflective optical coating is used, reflection can be reduced to less than 0.1% and conversely, a reflective coating can be used to increase reflectivity to over 99.99%.
Not only does using an antireflective coating reduce unwanted reflections and glare, but also protects underlying images against fading and yellowing, caused by UV.
The use of anti reflective ITO coatings is prevalent in many applications, such as:
- Touch Screens/Panels (Resistive and Capacitive)
- Electronic Automobile Displays
- Exterior Lighting Fixtures
- Medical Manufacturers/Control Screens
- EMI/RFI Shielding Filters
- Opto-Electronic/Electronic Displays
- Transparent ITO Heaters
- LED Screens
- Microscopy
Anti Reflective Coating Options
We offer DIAMOND AR anti reflective coating, which has similar spectral properties to the DIAMOX + coating. Our anti reflective coating can be applied to is available on polycarbonate, acrylic and glass substrates. We also offer AR PET film.
The AR coating is conductive with a sheet resistance of typically 1000+ ohms/sq. These anti reflective coating options are available:
- DIAMOND-AR
