About This Webinar
Anti-reflective (AR) coatings are now entering their second century and have remained virtually unchanged throughout their life. As power level and wavelength range requirements continue to increase, this aging technology struggles to keep up. In this webinar, Fiberguide will discuss a novel technology that utilizes the AR material itself to create anti-reflective nanostructures. This technique, known as RARe Motheye Fiber, offers greatly improved wavelength ranges and damage thresholds suitable for the increased demands of 21st century laser systems. The presenters, who include the creator of the RARe Motheye Fiber, will offer examples of how the technology is being used in various industries.
