In my investigation of various laboratories one of the things that comes up is the process used for AR coatings, with many well respected labs using some version of dip coatings for their house AR's. I can find some good articles discussing the pros and cons of spin vs dip coatings. As I have been using Zeiss products for the last several years I am more familiar with their use of electron vapor deposition process for their coatings, but can't seem to find anything comparing this method to the spin or dip processes. Can someone with more insight into these methods explain the differences/pros/cons of the varying methods?
Also, do you know which process is used for the bigger name coatings like Crizal/Super Hi Vision/EX3/Seiko Surpass or Extreme/DuraVision/Purecoat.......
Thanks
