Darmstadt, Germany - January 20, 2012 - Merck KGaA will be presenting its developments for the optics and photonics industry at the SPIE Photonics West Exhibition from January 24 to 26, 2012 in San Francisco, California, USA. Merck's exhibition stand will be focusing on the Patinal®, Solarpur®and Optipur® product ranges. |
The Patinal®brand stands for a range of vapor deposition
materials specifically developed for higly reliable
production of high quality optical thin filmlayer systems.
Apart from fluorides, oxides, sulfides and metals, the
Patinal® product range offers special substances that combine
intermediate and high refractive indices, with high process
stability, a wide transparency range, low absorption and low
fluorescence depending on the product. Patinal® materials are
available for the wavelength range from VUV (157nm) to beyond
LWIR (ca. 17 µm).
The WR Patinal®product family enables the smooth operation
and easy cleaning of the touch panel surfaces of smartphones
and tablet PCs. These hydrophobic and oleophobic layers are
also used in automotive applications such as rear view
cameras. The WR Patinal® range is being specifically
developed for the demanding requirements of the smartphone
market.
At the beginning of 2012, Merck KGaA appointed Capitol
Scientific, Inc. of Austin, Texas as a distributor of Patinal
products for the south-central territory of the United
States. They will join the team of two other Merck KGaA
distributors, EMCO and Ultimate Index on the west coast in
providing customers with fast and efficient service.
Aside from the Patinal® product range, Merck will be
presenting innovations within its Solarpur® and Optipur®
ranges:
· Solarpur®permits extremely thin antireflection broadband
coatings for solar panels. This increases the solar
transmission of a glass surface to approximately 98%, thus
considerably improving the efficiency of photovoltaic
systems.
· Optipur®materials are high-purity inorganic compounds for
the reliable production of single crystals used in a wide
variety of applications, such as
high-resolution imaging techniques in nuclear medicine or
high-transparency lenses for DUV and VUV applications in
laser lithography.
At the Merck exhibition stand (Hall D / Booth 5509), a team
of experts from the marketing & sales organization will be
available to explain the products and answer any
questions.
The SPIE Photonics West exhibition is the world's leading
venue for the photonics and laser industry and is a platform
for presenting the latest developments and technologies in
this sector. It is part of the SPIE Photonics West Conference
and Exhibition, which is being held from January 21 to 26,
2012 in San Francisco, California. The organizer expects
around 1,150 exhibitors and more than 19,000 visitors this
year.
