Monitoring of Tomorrow: LZH at the Optatec 2018

Lena Bennefeld Marketing & Communications
Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V.

    What tomorrow’s monitoring of coating processes might look like will be presented by the Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH) at the Optatec 2018 in Frankfurt/Main from May 15th to 17th, 2018, in hall 3 at booth A 58. This year’s three focuses of the LZH are: in-situ particle detection, spectrally high-resolution online monitoring and flexible measurement technology.

    Especially for longer coating processes it is important to check the optics for defect growth and inclusions during the process. The LZH develops systems for in-situ particle detection, which can be used to control complex coatings. These make it possible to identify sources of contamination in the process and to minimize or even eliminate them.

    Spectrally high-resolution online monitoring and flexible measurement technology

    Complex multi-layer systems with the highest spectral requirements call for a high-resolution layer thickness monitoring in order to be able to meet the specifications. The LZH is working on online monitoring systems that also meet future resolution requirements. Likewise, the LZH is researching a flexible measurement technology for quality control even for small optics and fibers.

    At the trade fair, the LZH will continue to offer its expertise and advice in the area of coating and process development. These include optics for space applications, astronomy, laser applications and lighting technology.

    Search / advanced search of the idw archives
    Combination of search terms

    You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

    Brackets

    You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

    Phrases

    Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

    Selection criteria

    You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

    If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
