[net.video] 19 inch anti-glare screen wanted

pma@husky.uucp (Philip Abram) (07/02/85)

 Does any one know of a stand alone anti-glare screen for the Sun 2/120 
graphics monitor? The monitor is produced by Moniterm Corp. and they were not 
aware of any such device. It is a 19 inch monochrome display with 16.5"x13.5"
flush cabinetry opening. The monitor can be purchased with an anti-glare 
coating but this is not field installable ( unless you have a vacuum form 
machine handy :-). Thanks in advance for any information.

    Optical Coating Laboratory, Incorporated makes a proprietary anti glare
coating for CRT manufacturers.  It works by coating a layer above the glass
such that the layer is 1/4 wavelength at the frequency of interest and is
reflected back from the glass/coating layer...voila, destructive cancellation.
Since the layer has an optical refractive index of ( n ** 1/2 ???) where n
is the glass r. i., the image coming from the CRT phosphour is not diffused...

     First, if you are willing to go to a LOT of trouble, the CRT which was
put in your terminal is ** Probably ** available in an OCLI version.  Second,
OCLI makes their neat stuff in sheet stock which they would be glad to cut
up for you to the right size.
