Oberflächenfunktionalisierung von Kunststoffoptik

Antireflection and other functional coatings Transparent plastics have been used for optical applications with growing demand. This development is accompanied by a desire for extended surface functionalities like antireflection and hardening. Coating processes well established for glass optics cannot be applied in most cases. Polymers properties which have to be taken into account for vacuum coating have been discussed in the first part of this tutorial. The second part is focused on the optimized coatings for plastic optics, especially for providing antireflective properties.
