I participated in the 52nd Optical Thin Film Research Conference.

Craftsman's Point: Achieved optical properties with a periodically varying refractive index. Application: Expected applications in notable fields such as Raman spectroscopy.

We will achieve optical characteristics that have not been realized before by periodically changing the refractive index. Conventional optical filters (optical thin films) consist of alternating layers of high-refractive-index and low-refractive-index films, which exhibit specific optical properties. In contrast, notch filters (band-stop filters) are deposition products designed to periodically change the refractive index in the thickness direction. A characteristic feature is that no optically unnecessary ripple occurs outside the stopband. We can achieve optical characteristics that were not possible with previous optical thin film processing. (Do you have such challenges?) ■ Is it possible to reflect only around the wavelength of 532nm? ■ I would like the unnecessary parts to be unable to transmit optically. ■ Notch filter? Band-stop filter? Rugate filter? ■ I have heard that the measurement difficulty after deposition is high; can you accommodate this?

It is an optical filter that selectively transmits ultraviolet wavelengths (255 nm) while blocking light of other wavelengths (using a substrate from Gohsui Seiko Glass).

Applications in the ultraviolet region are on the rise. At Itsuki Seiko Glass, we have developed filter glass substrates in the IHU series that have a transmission limit wavelength in the ultraviolet range and improved weather resistance to ultraviolet light. Recently, we have successfully deposited dielectric multilayer films to create bandpass filters in the ultraviolet region, as shown in the chart (measured data). (Are you facing these challenges?) ■ I want to transmit only specific wavelengths using aspheric lenses or lens arrays. ■ Is it possible to achieve pinpoint transmission at the UV-C wavelength of 254 nm? ■ Given the limited substrates and deposition materials, is anti-reflective coating feasible? ■ I've heard that measurement difficulty after film deposition is high; can you accommodate this? ■ Is it true that controlling the thickness in the UV region is very challenging due to its thinness? Based on our achievements in visible light, we can achieve high transmission rates in the ultraviolet wavelength range by controlling the deposition process. Additionally, by leveraging our ability to mold aspheric lenses and lens arrays in combination with our deposition technology, we can propose new applications.

It is an optical filter that selectively transmits light below a specific wavelength and blocks light of longer wavelengths.

The short pass filter selectively transmits light with wavelengths below a specific wavelength (800nm) while blocking light with longer wavelengths. This allows for effective handling of light in specific wavelength bands. (Do you have any of the following concerns?) ■ Is it possible to customize due to high wavelength dependence? ■ If light is incident at an angle, performance decreases; can it be controlled? ■ When blocking specific wavelengths, there may be a decrease in transmittance. ■ Can it cause chromatic aberration? ■ Is it difficult to control multiple wavelengths simultaneously?

It is a mirror that reflects light of a specific wavelength and transmits light of other wavelengths.

【1】Are you facing any of these issues? ◆ Is it possible to maintain a uniform reflectance for multiple wavelengths? ◆ Is it manageable if the reflectance decreases at specific wavelengths? ◆ Is color reproducibility achievable? ◆ Is there no problem with the stability of optical performance due to temperature changes or variations in environmental conditions? ◆ Is it possible to ship parts with a special shape? 【2】What is a dichroic mirror? A dichroic mirror is a mirror that reflects light of specific wavelengths while allowing other wavelengths to pass through. It consists of multiple layers, each with different optical properties. This characteristic allows for the effective separation, combination, or blocking of light at different wavelengths. 【3】Features of dichroic mirrors - Spectral separation Dichroic mirrors are used for spectral separation by selecting and reflecting or transmitting light of specific wavelengths from incident light. For example, they are used in optical devices that extract and detect light of specific wavelengths. - Light filtering They are used as filters to selectively remove light of specific wavelengths. This allows for the removal of unwanted light, enabling only the desired wavelengths to pass through.

ND stands for "Neutral Density," which is a filter used to adjust the light transmission rate.

【1】Are you facing any of these issues? ◆ I want to address concerns about flares and ghosts. ◆ Is it possible to adjust the transmittance with a custom setting? ◆ I am looking for a filter for adjusting laser equipment. ◆ The shape is special; can it be shipped as a part? 【2】What is an ND filter? ND stands for "Neutral Density," which is a filter used to adjust the transmittance of light. It is attached to the lens to reduce the amount of light entering from outside. It is an essential optical component for controlling shutter speed and aperture in bright environments when taking photographs with cameras, in order to achieve the appropriate exposure. 【3】Design and customization available for your desired wavelength range At Adachi New Industries, we can design and coat (film) according to your desired wavelength range. The characteristic chart at the beginning shows a transmittance of 50%, but we can accommodate other transmittance levels as well. Please feel free to contact us. Additionally, we will design according to the characteristics of the substrate and your requirements, so please let us know your desired substrate type and wavelength range when you inquire.

JOHNAN has released a video that clearly explains the implementation technology for stretchable films, which are expected to be utilized in wearable devices and medical equipment. In the video, you can see how the film, which has excellent elasticity, stretches and contracts. Please check our high technological capabilities and the flexible characteristics that are useful for product development. We hope this will help you generate new ideas in product development. ▼You can watch the video here [Link to the implementation page for stretchable films] https://www.johnan.com/dms/mounting/filmdevic/stretchable/

Thank you very much for your continued support. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, but our company will be closed for summer vacation during the following period. 【Closure Period】 From Saturday, August 9, 2025, to Thursday, August 14, 2025. We will resume normal business operations on Friday, August 15. We appreciate your understanding during this time and apologize for any inconvenience caused.

"Because it's an invisible place, we won't overlook it." Japan's climate is characterized by high temperatures and humidity, and particularly after typhoons and heavy rains, the conditions can be harsh for homes. It's not just the roofs and exterior walls that are affected by rain and wind. The area beneath the floor is actually the most susceptible and often overlooked point. This time, we will explain the "checkpoints for under the floor" that should be confirmed after a typhoon or heavy rain, the "responses" if abnormalities are found, and measures for preventing recurrence. [Table of Contents] ■ Why is underfloor checking necessary? ■ Checkpoints to confirm after a typhoon or heavy rain ■ Responses when damage is discovered ■ Points for preventing recurrence ■ Suggestions from Seihou Products ■ Summary Please be sure to read the [related materials] and [related links]. ↓ ↓ ↓

As part of the "Hometown Ibara Future Creation Human Resource Development Project," we welcomed local elementary and middle school students to the special summer program "Ibara Job Exploration Tour 2025," a collaboration between the Ibara City Chamber of Commerce and the Corporate Branding Committee. We conducted a presentation that clearly and enjoyably introduced how our technology supports society, allowing the children to learn about the appeal of manufacturing and the significance of working while interacting with actual devices and products. Through this initiative, we hope to deepen our connection with the community and nurture the curiosity of the children who will carry the future. We sincerely thank everyone who participated, as well as all those involved in planning and organizing the event.
