  • Patent number: 7169441
    Abstract: There is provided a UV-reflective interference layer system for transparent substrates with broadband anti-reflection properties in the visible wavelength range. The interference layer system includes at least four individual layers. Successive layers have different refractive indices and the individual layers contain UV and temperature-stable inorganic materials.

  • Publication number: 20020030882
    Abstract: The invention concerns a UV-reflecting interference layer system for transparent substrates with broadband antireflection coating in the visible wavelength region. The invention is characterized by the fact that the interference layer system has at least four individual layers. The sequential layers have different indices of refraction and the individual layers have inorganic materials that are stable to UV and temperature.

  • Patent number: 5955179
    Abstract: A coating for the structured production of conductors on the surface of electrically insulating substrates, in particular for producing sensor elements and printed circuit boards. The coating is formed from a doped tin oxide layer having the composition Sn.sub.1-(y+z) A.sub.y B.sub.z O.sub.2, in which A is Sb or F and B is In or Al. The relative proportions in the coating of the dopants antimony (or fluorine) and indium (or aluminum) are defined by the limits 0.02<y+z<0.11 and satisfy the condition 1.4<y/z<2.2. The coating can be structured by ablation using electromagnetic laser radiation in the wavelength range 157-1064 nm. The creates an economical means for high resolution and waste-free structuring of insulating channels in thin, electrically conductive layers having high chemical, mechanical and thermal resistance on glass or ceramic substrates.
