Diamond Coatings use oxide & semiconductor layers with a wavelength range of approximately 300nm to 20microns to produce a comprehensive range of special optical thin film coatings within the light spectrum’s visible & infra-red (IR) ranges.
Available in IR, near IR and visible wavelength ranges, Diamond Coatings’ special optical coatings can be produced on diverse substrates (incl. optical polymers, sapphire & various types of glass) and may, for example, consist of:
Most commonly utilized at 45º incidence angles (although Diamond Coatings have the capacity to produce splitters at diverse other angles), beamsplitters are designed to reflect one incident light portion and transmit the remaining portion.
For simple requirements insensitive to angular design, metal coatings can be a suitable solution in applications where large absorption amounts are acceptable. Over bandwidths of around 300nm, spectrally flat transmittance/reflectance curves can be achieved with all-dielectric designs.
Offering an average reflectance lower than 0.5% over a wide range of wavelengths (IR, visible & UV), DC multi-layer broadband AR coatings may be designed and produced for an extensive range of performances, incidence angles, substrates and wavelengths. We also have the capacity to design & manufacture dual-band anti-reflective coatings.
V coat AR coatings are typically utilized for applications with specific laser wavelengths and Diamond Coatings have the capability to produce V coat coatings for varying incidence angles. What’s more, it is possible for us to obtain reflection rates below 0.1% at single wavelengths.
Use of a high reflector (all-dielectric) like design permits short/long wave pass filter production for diverse angles of incidence.
Designed to reflect a specific portion of a given incident spectrum while transmitting another, edge filters are ideal for applications including, for example:
Our edge filter design & manufacture capability extends to a wide range of incidence angles.
While specific details depend on any given coating’s specific design and deposition process, DC’s special optical coatings usually comply with common optical (incl. MIL-C-675 & MIL-M-13508) specifications in terms of durability & cosmetic requirements.

By manipulating the interplay between light and material, anti-reflective coatings virtually eradicate distracting reflections, elevating clarity and visual quality.
An optical coating is a thin film deposited on a surface to alter its optical properties and manipulate the behaviour of light
