Color Mirage^TM is an optical thin film coating that controls the transmission, reflection or absorption of specific wavelengths. The specific light source, the angle of the light source, the angle of viewing and the texture of the surface will all affect perceived color. Material may be glass or plastic, smooth or textured, flat or shaped.

Modono Tile^TM is a unique series of glass tile with textures and patterns that respond to varying colors and wavelengths, created by nationally recognized designer Carrie Fazio.  Four distinct series make up the Modono Collection: Opulence, Vintage, Extreme and Organic.

Optivex^TM is ACG's own UV filter used by museums, galleries, and art collectors around the world to protect their art works. The same thin film can be applied to lenses and other shapes of most optical substrate materials.

A "cold" mirror is designed to reflect the visible light and transmit infrared radiation or heat. As a result, the visible light is fully available for the lighting application while reducing up to 90% of the reflected heat.

A "hot" mirror reflects infrared radiation and transmits visible light. This is generally accomplished by inserting the hot mirror in the path of the light beam, reflecting the infrared back toward the light source, and transmitting the visible light to the target.

Non-coated glass typically reflects 4% to 5% of the visible light spectrum. Certain antireflection thin film coatings can reduce the reflectivity down to 0.1%.

Coated reflectors can control the color of the light output more efficiently and provide greater longevity than gels or colored glasses. This is an excellent solution when the color of projected light is important.

Color filters will transmit the desired wavelength/color and reflect remaining wavelengths thus providing a specific color more efficiently than gels or colored glass.

A Bandpass Filter is designed to transmit a particular wavelength band and block others.

Neutral beam dividers split a beam of light in any ratio desired. The split occurs across the entire spectrum so that both transmitted and reflected light are neutral in color. This can occur without any loss.

This thin film can be engineered to function as a chemical barrier and this provides either chemical containment or a protective barrier.

Metal films can be applied to fully reflect the entire spectrum or just specific spectral areas. Coatings can be enhanced to improve durability and/or reflectivity.

This thin film can be applied to modify the surface energy thus altering the hydrophobic or hydrophilic properties of a substrate.
