Co-creation proposal! Added 'Sports Tech × Optical Thin Films' as a technology trend keyword.

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 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.

A bandpass filter that achieves sharp rise and high transmittance in the visible light range (660nm). It is ideal for red laser diodes and LED applications.

Are you having trouble with something like this? - Is it possible to only allow a specific wavelength (633nm) to pass through? - I would like to expand the stop band because light other than the desired wavelength becomes noise. - Can you take into account the range of incident angles? - The shape is special; can it be shipped as a component? Optical bandpass filters are used in various optical applications and are essential for selectively extracting light of specific wavelengths. Passband: An optical bandpass filter allows a specific range of wavelengths to pass through. This range of wavelengths is called the passband and is typically defined by the center wavelength and the wavelength bandwidth. Wavelength selectivity: Optical bandpass filters can have very high wavelength selectivity, emphasizing light of specific wavelengths. This is important in many fields where precise wavelength selectivity is required. A 660nm bandpass filter, which selectively allows light in the specific wavelength range of 660nm to pass through, is commonly used in optical applications. This bandpass filter amplifies or allows light within the wavelength range around 660nm while blocking light of other wavelengths.

This is a bandpass filter that achieves a sharp rise and high transmittance in the infrared range (905nm). It is ideal for TOF sensors and LiDAR.

Are you facing any of these issues? - Is it possible to only transmit specific wavelengths in the infrared range? - I would like a bandpass filter suitable for TOF sensors. - I heard that the wavelength used in LiDAR is 905nm; can you create a film for that? - Since light other than the desired wavelength will cause noise, I would like to widen the stop band. - Given the range of incident angles, can this be taken into account? - Is it possible to mount this on AGVs or OHTs? The 905nm bandpass filter is a filter that transmits specific wavelengths by utilizing light interference through the deposition of dielectric films. Based on our proven results in visible light, we can achieve sharp wavelength separation and high transmission rates in the infrared range (905nm) by controlling the deposition process, making it ideal for photoelectric sensors (such as TOF sensors) that require delicate light. We have standard stock items available, so please consider them. https://www.e-coating.jp/stock/cat/filmtype/bandpassfilter/

Standard stock items include anti-reflective films, bandpass filters (BPF filters), and infrared cut filters (IR cut filters), among others.

We will start selling some optical thin film products (optical filter products) and patterned processing products as "standard stock items." We have responded to such requests! ◆ It's difficult to bear the cost of a whole batch when only a few pieces are needed for experiments... ◆ I want to see product development and performance tests quickly, so I need a few pieces at different levels... ◆ I just want to try it out for now... We often hear such voices through inquiries from our website. Even if custom-made filters are ultimately needed, I believe it is very difficult to define complete filter performance from the beginning.

CLT, which has been widely adopted in the construction field, is now expanding its applications into the civil engineering sector. The "Hyper CLT Mats" are civil engineering CLT products that utilize wood CLT as temporary materials. Traditionally, steel plates have been the mainstream choice for temporary roads, access routes, and heavy machinery yards. The Hyper CLT Mats introduce a new option of "wood" to that market. The 5x10 mats weigh approximately 230 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove with small machinery, with a maximum capacity of 40 mats on a 10-ton truck. They also have advantages in terms of workability and transportation efficiency. Moreover, they offer added value that can only be achieved with wood, such as glare reduction, noise control, CO2 fixation, and consideration for aesthetics. This product is expected to be a new proposal for not only construction companies but also building material firms, lumber companies, and material trading companies. It is a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS, with the registration number "TH-250021-A." The use of wood is not limited to construction anymore. The utilization of Hyper CLT Mats is expanding as a new market that connects civil engineering and wood.

In civil engineering sites such as mountainous areas and construction sites, it may be necessary to use wooden boards on slopes or inclined access roads. Hyper CLT boards are civil engineering materials utilizing wood CLT, which can be laid not only on flat ground but also on sloped terrain. They can be used for temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery entry paths, and measures against muddy conditions, creating a driving environment that takes advantage of the unique surface characteristics of wood. The 5×10 board weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 board weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove even with small machinery, which is a notable feature for maneuverability in narrow sites. This wooden board is registered as a technology under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS system as "TH-250021-A," and can also be utilized for safety measures and innovative ideas in public works.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Repairs using conventional welding methods can alter the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" or "secondary damage." Hinode Waterworks Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material with heat. Repairs can be performed even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.
