Disclosed herein are systems and methods for ion exchanging glass articles. Methods for ion exchanging glass articles include receiving processing instructions from one or more user input devices, loading a cassette containing a plurality of glass articles into a molten salt bath of one or more ion exchange stations automatically with a robotic lift based on the processing instructions, removing the cassette from the molten salt bath automatically with the robotic lift after a predetermined time based on the processing instructions, and rotating the cassette automatically to drain fluid of the molten salt bath from the cassette.

Multilayer anti-reflective coatings having four or more layers are disclosed. In one aspect, the multilayer anti-reflective coating comprises a first layer having a refractive index n, where n&#x3c;1.4, and an optical thickness of (0.25&#xb1;5%) &#x3bb;nm; a second layer adjacent to the first layer, the second layer having a refractive index n, where n&#x2267;1.8, and an optical thickness of (0.5&#xb1;5%) &#x3bb;nm; a third layer adjacent to the second layer, the third layer having a refractive index n, where 1.4&#x2266;n&#x3c;1.6, and an optical thickness of (0.1&#xb1;5%) &#x3bb;nm; and a fourth layer adjacent to the third layer, the fourth layer having a refractive index n, where n&#x2267;1.8, and an optical thickness of (0.05&#xb1;10%) &#x3bb;nm; where &#x3bb;is a wavelength in the visible light range.

Anti-reflective coating for optical windows and elements

A fused silica production furnace and methods of producing fused silica are disclosed. The furnace and the methods involve using a foamed refractory having a network of interconnected pores.

Method and apparatus for fused silica production

A glass polarizer and a method of making the polarizer, the polarizer being produced from an R O&mdash;Al O &mdash;B O &mdash;SiO glass containing limited amounts of ZrO and TiO , and having a silver halide liquidus temperature and a rutile liquidus temperature, both temperatures being not over 995&deg; C.
