Abstract
Multilayer stacks with up to 7 layers have been designed to provide hi gh luminous transmittance together with low near-infrared transmittanc e for unpolarized light incident at oblique angles. A substantial angu lar dependence in transmission is obtained from both theory and experi ment. Six different dielectric materials (MgF2, CaF2, SiO2, ZnS, TiO2 and WO3) and three metals (Ag, Al and Cr) were used in this study.
