Anti-Reflective Coatings for Sapphire Optical Windows

Sapphire optical windows are widely used in high-performance optical systems due to their exceptional hardness, thermal stability, chemical resistance, and broad optical transmission range. However, despite these advantages, uncoated sapphire surfaces inherently exhibit relatively high Fresnel reflection losses because of sapphire’s high refractive index. To overcome this limitation, anti-reflective (AR) coatings are commonly applied to
