Device Applies Films to Optical Elements
Abstract
Clamping device applies protective or antireflective dielectric coating to lenses or other optical elements. Alternative version of device applies thin sheet of dielectric film to ring or stretches it for clamping in holder to form pellicle or beam splitter. Defects avoided by new apparatus, which uniformly stretches dielectric films in radial direction and creates vacuum between them before thermally bonded to optical element.
