Our teams focus on the development of new thin film technology including obtaining unique optical and material properties and achieving precise coating applications for complex substrates.
Examples include optical coatings in the UV, visible, infrared and microwave ranges optimized for solar rejection, active/passive thermal control, atomic oxygen resistance, laser damage resistance, abrasion resistance, and environmental stability/durability, transparent conductive films, patterned films, and thin film coated textiles.
Our facility has applied the Advanced Thermal Control Coating (DRLI-ATCC) and Advanced Solar Control Coating (DRLI-ASCC) to the NASA Spacesuit visor assembly since 1997.
