Thin Films on Glass

This corrected and expanded printing of Thin Films on Glass describes the development of active and passive thin films on glass at Schott, including recent developments and new technologies in glass ceramic reflectors, coatings on plastics and optical multilayers for ultra narrow band pass filters. Design strategies, the use of conventional and newly developed production technologies, and the application of characterization methods for the structure of thin films and their properties are reported. The book is written by Schott experts and illustrates how the best film materials and deposition and processing parameters may be selected. The topics covered include flip-flop layers, wave-guiding films, Rugate filters and gradient devices, optical transducers, coatings, and mirrors.
