Coating Guide extended The menu section Coating guide on top became an extension. Our Coating specials give you a brief overview of the specialities
LASEROPTIK is able to serve: optimized coating designs and techniques,
substrate handling and coating fixtures.
Optimized thin film coatings with IBS This article (in german) by Dr. Wolfgang Ebert and Tobias Groß (published in "Laser+Photonik", Iss. 1, March 2010, p. 30-34) discusses and compares the different coating methods found at LASEROPTIK with focus on IBS process and its special possibilities.
Photonics West 2010 booth 4601-24 January 26.-28. San Francisco, USA
LASEROPTIK started an "open door" day on September 3.,2009. A lot of visitors came in to congratulate, celebrate and inform themselves about the capabilities of our production. A photo gallery of LO OPEN can be seen here or at menu item "About us > 25th anniversary". A short article (in german) describes the day and the celebrations at the "Laserhof" in Garbsen. download PDF file
1984 - 2009 LASEROPTIK GmbH celebrates the 25 anniversary!
AR coating
AR 1064 nm / 0° Antireflection coatings Nd:YAG
Residual reflectivity for N-BK7
AR: R < 0.2 % at 1064 nmm
DAR: R < 0.25 % at 1064 nmm
Ravg <1% at 450-650 nm
Damage threshold
of AR and DAR, 10 ns-pulses, 1 Hz
20 J/cm2
CW 2 kW/mm (radius of the beam)
Damage thresholds
of AR coatings depend on substrate material and polishment (other parameters excepted).
A broad variety of AR coatings for YAG combined with other wavelengths can be coated onto stable substrate materials, as crystals and semiconductors. Please ask LASEROPTIK
