    AR residual color is red and green

    I just received a job with 14 diop vertical prism in sv poly that has both the usual green residual color reflection and also an unwanted reddish reflection. The optics look good otherwise. Is this just a cosmetic error?

    A lot of lower quality AR's have uneven residuals like that. What was it supposed to be?

    AR's are also designed with a certain angle of incidence and when the lens has a large disparity in the angle of incident you could get a a slightly different risidual effect. Just a thought.
