38.2: High Performance Single Layer Anti‐Reflective Coatings via Wet UV Curing Technology

Here we present a novel manner for preparing single layer anti-reflective coatings with excellent optical properties (<1% reflection) over a broad wavelength regime. The technology is based upon the self-assembly and UV curing of reactive nano-particles, leading to nano-structured coatings with a gradient in refractive index. The single processing step leading to such coatings is fast, robust and cost effective.

P‐31: Use of UV Curable Coatings in Display Manufacturing

In this paper, we discuss the use of UV curable coatings for the manufacturing of display devices. In the first part, we describe the influence of composition and elevated temperature on the water permeability and adhesive behavior of UV curable adhesives and sealants. The second part of this paper describe the influence of the inorganic content on the chemical, abrasion and thermal resistance of organic-inorganic UV curable hard-coats.
