Description
In this SBIR program, Structured Materials Industries, Inc. (SMI) will develop infrared (IR) antireflection (AR) coatings, which can be applied conformally to the interior of ogive shaped missile domes. SMI will develop the coating materials, the coating process, and the commercial coating equipment for implementation in Phase III. The proposed coatings will provide optimum antireflection properties in the 3 to 5 µm wavelength range, and be stable through exposures to high temperature. SMI's coating process will enable gradation of the coating's optical properties along the length of the missile dome, to accommodate variations of the optical transmission angle from 0 to 60 degrees.
