Abstract
A multilayer antireflection coating for a liquid cell three high refractive index layers and two low refractive index layers arranged alternatively with high refractive index layers outermost. The innermost high refractive index layer is formed from an electrically-conductive metal oxide material and may have an optical thickness between about one-tenth and three wavelengths of visible light. Thickness of each layer may be adjusted to provide lowest reflectivity. Alternatively layer thickness may be arranged such that if three layers of the coating are etched away to define an electrode coating, spectral response of the remaining two layers is the same as the original five layers.
