2. Anti-reflective coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-reflective_coating

   The reflection from the coated lens is tinted because the coating works better at some wavelengths than others. An antireflective, antiglare or anti-reflection (AR) coating is a type of optical coating applied to the surface of lenses, other optical elements, and photovoltaic cells to reduce reflection. In typical imaging systems, this improves ...

3. Picture framing glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picture_framing_glass

   While "anti-glare" (a.k.a. "non-glare" or matte finish) glass treatments focus on scattering the light, "anti-reflective" coatings actually reduce the amount of light, which is reflected from each glazing surface, which has the benefit of increasing the amount of light transmitted through the glazing.

4. Optical coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_coating

   Optical coating. An optical coating is one or more thin layers of material deposited on an optical component such as a lens, prism or mirror, which alters the way in which the optic reflects and transmits light. These coatings have become a key technology in the field of optics. One type of optical coating is an anti-reflective coating, which ...

   Awards. Garvan–Olin Medal (1951) Katharine Burr Blodgett (January 10, 1898 – October 12, 1979) [2] was an American physicist and chemist known for her work on surface chemistry, in particular her invention of "invisible" or nonreflective glass while working at General Electric. She was the first woman to be awarded a PhD in physics from the ...

6. Silvering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silvering

   Silvering. Silvering on the inside of a glass test tube. Silvering is the chemical process of coating a non-conductive substrate such as glass with a reflective substance, to produce a mirror. While the metal is often silver, the term is used for the application of any reflective metal.

7. Insulated glazing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulated_glazing

   EURO 68 wooden window profile with insulated glazing. Insulating glass (IG) consists of two or more glass window panes separated by a space to reduce heat transfer across a part of the building envelope. A window with insulating glass is commonly known as double glazing or a double-paned window, triple glazing or a triple-paned window, or ...
