Anti-reflective film (AR) allows more visible light to pass through. [Free initial design]

Outer space is the most challenging and promising field for optical thin films. Environmental factors that are completely different from those on the ground—vacuum ultraviolet, high-energy particles, extreme thermal cycles, atomic oxygen—simultaneously pose threats to the thin films, while it is precisely these films that maintain the accuracy of sensing, communication, and observation. As the trend of New Space accelerates, the scenarios in which optical thin films influence the competitiveness of space development are increasing. We aspire to be more than just a "coating manufacturer"; we want to be partners who think together from the very beginning of development. It is perfectly fine if the requirements are not yet solidified or if we are still in the preliminary stages of specifications. We hope this can serve as a starting point for dialogue with engineers working on space products.

The competition for the practical application of quantum computers is accelerating on a global scale. However, one of the barriers faced by researchers and engineers working on development at the forefront is the reality that "components cannot be procured." High-precision optical elements and optical thin films are essential to the foundation of quantum systems, yet suppliers capable of meeting the specific requirements of quantum optics are limited worldwide. Of course, at this point, Adachi New Industries cannot produce all products through film deposition and manufacturing, but we present this co-creation proposal to developers to overcome that barrier together. 01: Quantum Computers and Optical Thin Films 02: Optical Thin Film Products Required for Quantum Systems—Specific Product Groups and Required Specifications 03: Reasons Why Quantum Optical Coatings Are Difficult—Structure of Technical Challenges 04: Co-creation with Master Coatings—Development Process Starting from Small-Scale Prototyping Summary Adachi New Industries' "Master Coatings" will accompany you as a partner to overcome these barriers together, from the initial concept stage of development to the mass production phase. Starting with small-scale prototyping, we will cycle through prototyping and evaluation together, "co-creating" the optical thin films required for quantum devices—this is our co-creation proposal.

In the world of architecture and interior design, the "experiential value of space itself" is beginning to change significantly. Until now, the performance expected from building materials focused primarily on basic functions such as strength, weather resistance, thermal insulation, and workability. However, in recent years, in addition to these, the "sensory value of how one feels in that space" and "the impression it gives" have become increasingly important. 1. The changing value of "light" in the architecture and interior design fields 2. The potential of optical thin films in architectural spaces 2-1. Development towards high-performance glass 2-2. Integration with virtual space production and transparent displays 2-3. Adding functionality to interior materials 3. Sensing and optical design required in the era of smart architecture 4. The importance of "co-creation" in the architecture and interior design fields Summary: Optical thin films are a technology for designing the "future of space." A new era is beginning where new architectural values are emerging by crossing previously separate technological domains. Adachi New Industry Co., Ltd.'s "Takumi Coating" proposes new possibilities for co-creation in the architecture and interior design fields through optical thin films and patterning processing.

Even in the current era of accelerating digitalization, stationery and office supplies remain indispensable to our work and learning. Not only traditional products like notebooks and writing instruments, but also electronic whiteboards, tablet devices, conference systems, digital signage, and authentication cards are becoming increasingly advanced in office spaces year by year. In particular, recent market changes such as hybrid work, the ICT transformation in education, the development of smart offices, enhanced information security, and the introduction of sensing technologies have made "visibility," "usability," and "information reading accuracy" significantly influence product value. Among these, the technology for "controlling light" has begun to attract attention. 01: Stationery and office supplies are becoming "information devices." 02: AR coatings change "visibility" and "ease of work." 03: The evolution of digital stationery and sensing technology. 04: New possibilities for "attractive stationery" and optical thin films. Summary: The next stationery and office supplies will be differentiated by "light." For more details, please visit our company website.
