Patent ID: 10473837

Abstract:
An optical interference coating with reduced back reflectance for 3D glasses based on colour separation has a substantial transmittance at one or more passbands over the visible spectral range in order to view the desired left (right) eye image and a substantial reflectance and absorption at one or more different blocking bands over the visible spectral range in order to block the undesired right (left) eye image while simultaneously reducing the back reflectance of visible light towards the viewer's eye. The thicknesses and materials are chosen such that the left eye reduced back reflectance 3D coated lens transmits the desired left eye image and blocks the right eye image while the right eye reduced back reflectance 3D coated lens transmits the desired right eye image and blocks the left eye image so that a 3D image can be viewed whilst substantially reducing distracting back reflections from the coated lenses.
