DIAMANTA
DLC coater for IR optics
DIAMANTA vacuum system is designed for the deposition of wear resistant diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings on silicon and germanium substrates. These DLC coatings are antireflective in IR range of 3-5 µm as well as in the 7-14 µm range. The deposition method is a plasma enhanced chemical deposition of carbon from the gas phase stimulated by plasma of an ion-beam source. IR optic products are often used in the most extreme operating conditions, where an AR coating is used in combination with a DLC coating on the front side of external lenses.
