Gas Blends in Cavity


If you want to specify a gas blend in a cavity you write it as [12.7Ar70Kr30] this would be a 12.7mm millimeter cavity with a blend of 70% Argon and 30% Krypton.

  • for now only two gas blends are supported. You cannot enter a three gas blend.
  • The builder corrects the second gas amount to total 100

Specification Formatting


The Decoder section now allows parsing into Section 2 in a specification format.

This is a trial of exporting the glass makeup in a specification format for the product section. Please ensure accuracy if you intend on using it for real life purposes.

Coating Abbreviation Table


The standard nomenclature format does not include specific coatings on glass as there is no central source for these coatings. LBNL has a glass list but it includes each glass type including the coating not the coating itself.

Below is a table of coatings that this tool will support when preview settings are turned on. These codes are not officially supported.

Also coatings are only available on supported glass substrates from the designated manufacturer. It is up to the user to be well versed in available products.
