Laser ablated sub-wavelength structure anti-reflection coating on an alumina lens

Shaul Hanany, Scott Cray, Samuel Dietterich +12

We used laser ablation to fabricate sub-wavelength structure anti-reflection coating (SWS-ARC) on a 5 cm diameter alumina lens. With an aspect ratio of 2.5, the SWS-ARC are designe…

A Large Diameter Millimeter-Wave Low-Pass Filter Made of Alumina with Laser Ablated Anti-Reflection Coating

Ryota Takaku, Qi Wen, Scott Cray +14

We fabricated a 302 mm diameter low-pass filter made of alumina that has an anti-reflection coating (ARC) made with laser-ablated sub-wavelength structures (SWS). The filter has be…

Broadband, millimeter-wave anti-reflective structures on sapphire ablated with femto-second laser

R. Takaku, S. Hanany, H. Imada +13

We designed, fabricated, and measured anti-reflection coating (ARC) on sapphire that has 116% fractional bandwidth and transmission of at least 97% in the millimeter wave band. The…
