Scientists from the Obninsk Research and Production Enterprise "Tekhnologiya" named after A. G. Romashin in the Kaluga region have created an innovative optical coating and technology for its application to the glazing of pilot cabins. It has no analogues in Russia.
A nanoscale metal-optical composition consisting of thin films of dielectrics and metals provides aircraft glazing with unique optical and functional properties.
It reduces electromagnetic radiation by 250 times and is 500 times thinner than a human hair. It takes 3 grams of gold to coat one structure.
Coatings are applied in a special sterile room – a clean room. Powerful filters trap dust coming from the outside, and employees are dressed in special uniforms.
