31. Using Beam Splitters For Teleprompters 1/14/2016

    A teleprompter system is made up of a one-way mirror, a screen, and a camera. The coated glass mirror is placed at an angle in order to reflect the image text from below. This allows an individual to look directly at the camera, rather than looking at notes or a script when addressing an audience. Abrisa Technologies provides non-distortion, high definition compatible optical grade beam splitter mirrors for these teleprompter applications.

32. Application Of Frit Inks For Screen Printed Glass 12/8/2015

    Abrisa Technologies offers frit ink graphics for screen printed glass used in rigorous environmental conditions. This frit ink is not affected by moisture, oil, soaps, chemicals, or detergents, and is able to retain its original appearance throughout the life of the glass. It is an ideal choice for soda lime glass and SCHOTT Borofloat® due to its high melting point and ability to be used in high temperature environments.

33. Solid Colored Glass Can Provide The Right Hue To Fit The Desired Mood 12/3/2015

    Abrisa Technologies offers a wide variety of solid colored glass for use in lighting and entertainment, architectural, and landscaping applications. Designed with soda lime glass that can be tempered for additional thermal shock resistance, the colored glass may be drilled, sandblasted, screen printed, and fabricated to any shape. 

34. Tough Durable Coatings For Medical & Dental Markets & Applications 10/29/2015

    Many types of imaging and endoscopic surgical instruments come in direct contact with the human body during medical and dental applications. Therefore, these devices need to be equipped with optical coatings that not only have superior optical performance, but also can survive the device assembly and its harsh sterilization processes. The ZC&R Coatings for Optics of Abrisa Technologies collaborates with customers in order to design and manufacture the optimal selection of optical substrates, mounting configurations, and coating materials that meet the high demands of these instruments.

35. What Is Sight Glass? 9/14/2015

    A sight glass is a visual observation window used to view or monitor liquid levels and flow within a tank, pipeline, or other pressure vessel. This app note discusses the characteristics of sight glasses, as well as how to choose the best substrate based on application requirements.

36. Can Machined Glass Be Strengthened? 10/23/2014

    Download this brief application note to learn more about tempered and heat strengthened glass, chemically strengthened soda glass, and high ion-exchange chemically strengthened thin glass, and the potential risks and feasibility of strengthening said glass.

37. Borosilicate Glass Comparison: Corning® Eagle XG®: vs. SCHOTT D263 10/21/2014

    Borosilicate glass is much more resistant to thermal shock than any common glass types. This application note provides information on the differentiating factors between two different types of this specialized glass.

38. Beam Splitter Coatings 4/5/2011

    Beam Splitter (BS) is a term used to describe various coatings which divide a beam of light into separate beams. Dichroic filters are often called beam splitters. In this section, we will be describing beam splitters that divide light at each wavelength of interest into two separate beams. These beam splitters are typically designed for an incident angle around 45 degrees from normal.

39. Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) Coatings Provide High Transmittance Solutions For Optics Applications

    ZC&R Coatings for Optics, a division of Abrisa Technologies, provides Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) and Index-Matched Indium Tin Oxide (IMITO) transparent, high transmittance conductive coatings which are extremely useful in EMI shielded windows for sensors and displays, heated outdoor camera windows, liquid crystal based polarization devices, and photovoltaic cells.

40. Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) & Index-Matched Indium Tin Oxide (IMITO)

    Transparent conductive coatings are very often used in electro-magnetic shielding, electrical heating, and cutting edge display applications. Abrisa Technologies uses the coating material Indium Tin oxide (ITO) which provides for excellent durable coatings.
