Meller Optics

What's the most unusual way you've seen an optical component fail?

Scratched coatings?

Thermal shock?

Chemical attack?

Unexpected contamination?

Every engineer has at least one story.

We'll start: many industrial windows fail because the material wasn't selected for the actual operating environment.
