Window Coatings
Table 2-3 lists some exit window manufacturers and anti-reflection coaters.
Anti-Reflection Coatings
Anti-reflection coatings can be used to achieve maximum working range and to improve the range of acceptable
window positions. However, they are expensive. AR coatings also have very poor abrasion and scratch
resistance, making only single-side AR coating practical (the AR coated side of the window faces the interior of
the imager).
Polysiloxane Coating
Apply polysiloxane type coatings to plastic surfaces to improve the surface resistance to both scratch and
abrasion. Typically, you apply these by dipping, then air-drying in an oven with filtered hot air.
