At LIGHING GLASS, we provide an extensive range of precision glass coating solutions tailored to enhance the performance and reliability of glass components across various industries. Leveraging advanced coating technologies and high-quality materials, we offer coatings designed to meet the specific demands of our clients’ applications, ensuring superior protection and optimal functionality.

Coating Technologies

We utilize a variety of cutting-edge coating techniques to apply functional coatings to glass substrates, including:

★Dip Coating: A versatile technique suitable for uniform coatings across different glass substrates.
★Sputter Deposition: Used to apply thin metallic or dielectric layers, ideal for coatings requiring specific optical or electrical properties.
★Vacuum Deposition: A precise method for applying thin, high-performance coatings that enhance glass properties like durability and optical performance.

Our computer-controlled vacuum, dipping, and sputtering chambers provide high-stability performance, ensuring consistency in coating quality. We accommodate a wide range of glass sizes, with substrates ranging from 0.1” to 24.0” in diameter and 0.004” to 12.0” in thickness.

Coating Options

We offer a broad spectrum of coating options to suit various applications, from optical components to industrial glass parts. Our coatings include:

Anti-Reflective (AR) Coatings: These coatings are designed to reduce surface reflections and improve the transmission of light, enhancing the clarity and contrast of images. For example, AR coatings can reduce surface reflection from approximately 4% to as low as 0.20%, significantly improving optical performance.

★Single Layer MgF2: Reflectance of less than 1.5% per side, ideal for general-purpose applications.

★Multi-Layer AR Coatings: Reflectance of less than 0.5%, providing better performance in more demanding optical systems.

★V-Coat AR Coating: Reflectance of less than 0.25% at specified wavelengths, offering high-performance reduction in surface reflections.

★Dual-Wavelength AR Coatings: For applications requiring optimized coatings at specific wavelengths (e.g., 532nm + 633nm).

★Specialized UV and IR AR Coatings: Coatings designed for specific wavelengths in the ultraviolet (UV) (e.g., 254nm) and infrared (IR) (e.g., 1064nm) regions.

★Reflective Coatings: Designed to enhance the reflectivity of glass surfaces, reflective coatings are used for optical mirrors, beam splitters, and other precision optical applications.

★Conductive and Resistive Coatings: Ideal for applications in electronics, these coatings provide conductivity or resistance properties tailored to specific performance needs, such as in touch screens, sensors, and electrostatic discharge protection.

★Shortwave Pass Filters: We create custom coatings that block specific wavelengths of light while allowing others to pass through, making them ideal for optical filters used in lasers, imaging systems, and spectrometry.

Materials We Coate

We apply coatings to a variety of high-performance glass materials, including:

★Borosilicate Glass: Known for its excellent thermal stability and resistance to chemical corrosion.

★Soda-Lime Glass: Commonly used for general-purpose glass applications.

★Fused Quartz and Fused Silica: Ideal for high-temperature and high-precision optical applications.

★Glass Ceramics: Used in specialized applications requiring superior durability and mechanical strength.

★Synthetic Sapphire and Filter Glass: Applied in high-end optics, lasers, and other precision applications.
