Antireflection coatings reduce the surface reflexes of light
on glasses. Concerning glass with n = 1,52 ( e.g. optical crown ),
approximately 8% of the light are reflected at the surfaces.
With antireflection coatings the loss can be reduced to less than 1%.
Hence, antireflection coatings are indispensable for effective
optics and illumination systems and simultaneously increase the contrast.
