Especially for longer coating processes it is important to check the optics for defect growth and inclusions during the process.
The LZH develops systems for in-situ particle detection, which can be used to control complex coatings.
These make it possible to identify sources of contamination in the process and to minimize or even eliminate them.
Spectrally high-resolution online monitoring and flexible measurement technology
Complex multi-layer systems with the highest spectral requirements call for a high-resolution layer thickness monitoring in order to be able to meet the specifications.
The LZH is working on online monitoring systems that also meet future resolution requirements. Likewise, the LZH is researching a flexible measurement technology for quality control even for small optics and fibers.
At the trade fair, the LZH will continue to offer its expertise and advice in the area of coating and process development.
These include optics for space applications, astronomy, laser applications and lighting technology.
