Optical systems used in harsh environments face unique challenges in preventing component damage and system performance degradation. Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings and other highly-durable anti-reflective (AR) coatings are ideal solutions for these systems. DLC coatings feature a high hardness, low-friction surface with resistance to scratches and corrosion while providing excellent transmission in the mid- to long-wave infrared (IR). Their superior resistance and strength make them suitable for harsh, rugged environments and are ideal for thermal imaging and other defense applications.
