  • Patent number: 5982078
    Abstract: Optical interference coatings useful on lamps for transmitting visible light radiation at about 90% average from 400-770 nm and for reflecting infrared radiation comprise three spectrally adjacent multiperiod stacks of alternating high and low index of refraction layers. Compared to conventional filters, these filters have a greater tolerance to layer thickness variations incurred during manufacture with little or no color shift when viewed at non-normal angles.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 26, 1994
    Date of Patent: November 9, 1999
    Assignee: General Electric Company
