A reflective photochromic element having a diffuse reflective surface is provided. A diffuse reflection type photochromic element has a transparent thin film having surface irregularities formed on a transparent base and a reflective photochromic thin film layer having surface irregularities formed on that transparent thin film. A diffuse reflection type photochromic glass material includes the aforementioned diffuse reflection type photochromic element as a constituent unit. A method for manufacturing a diffuse reflection type photochromic unit includes the steps of forming a transparent thin film having surface irregularities integrally or separately on a transparent base and forming a reflective photochromic thin film layer having surface irregularities on that transparent thin film.
摘要:
A method for forming coatings of constant thickness on sheets of dielectric substrate (10), which may be curved, includes the step of adhesively applying foil (12) to one side of the dielectric substrate. An electrode (16) is set at a constant distance (D) from the side (10fs) of the substrate to be coated. If the substrate is curved, the electrode is preferably also curved. The region to be coated is evacuated, gaseous precursor materials are infused into the gap, and voltage is applied between the foil (12) and the electrode (16) sufficient to ionize the precursors to a plasma state, whereupon the deposition occurs. The foil may be applied as an adhesive-backed foil. The adhesive may be electrically conductive.

An object of the present invention is to provide a technology of reducing a nickel element in the silicon film which is crystallized by using nickel. An extremely small amount of nickel is introduced into an amorphous silicon film which is formed on the glass substrate. Then this amorphous silicon film is crystallized by heating. At this time, the nickel element remains in the crystallized silicon film. Then an amorphous silicon film is formed on the surface of the silicon film crystallized with the action of nickel. Then the amorphous silicon film is further heat treated. By carrying out this heat treatment, the nickel element is dispersed from the crystallized silicon film into the amorphous silicon film with the result that the nickel density in the crystallized silicon film is lowered.

摘要:
A process for the selective conversion of a polymer coating to a ceramic material is disclosed. This process initially involves the provision of a polymer film which has been generated by R. F. plasma vapor phase polymerization of a monomer comprising an inorganic (i.e. silicon) or an organometallic constituent on a receptive substrate. The polymer is thereafter selectively exposed to a coherent or focused energy source (i.e. CO.sub.2 laser) at the appropriate wavelength and power output to effect in situ conversion of a polymer film to a ceramic deposit which is substantially devoid of carbonaceous impurities. This process is also unique for its ability to provide a ceramic deposit that is firmly adherent on a variety of receptive substrates. The degree of adherence is far superior to ceramic coatings derived by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) techniques. The process lends itself to the formation of ceramic patterns which have application in the microelectronics industry.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to a plasma source utilizing a macro-particle reduction coating and method of using a plasma source utilizing a macro-particle reduction for deposition of thin film coatings and modification of surfaces. More particularly, the present invention relates to a plasma source comprising one or more plasma-generating electrodes, wherein a macro-particle reduction coating is deposited on at least a portion of the plasma-generating surfaces of the one or more electrodes to shield the plasma-generating surfaces of the electrodes from erosion by the produced plasma and to resist the formation of particulate matter, thus enhancing the performance and extending the service life of the plasma source.

A method of producing a glass substrate having a first layer formed on a surface of the substrate by low-temperature CVD includes preparing the glass substrate and forming the first layer on the glass substrate by the low-temperature CVD. In the glass substrate after forming the first layer, an integrated value after a baseline correction in a wavenumber range of 2600 cm−1 to 3800 cm−1 in a peak due to OH groups obtained by an FTIR measurement on the first layer is 9.0 or less, and the C content of the first layer is 1.64 at % or less.
摘要:
One or more aspects of the disclosure pertain to an article including a film disposed on a glass substrate, which may be strengthened, where the interface between the film and the glass substrate is modified, such that the article has an improved average flexural strength, and the film retains key functional properties for its application. Some key functional properties of the film include optical, electrical and/or mechanical properties. In one or more embodiments, the interface exhibits an effective adhesion energy of about less than about 4 J/m2. In some embodiments, the interface is modified by the inclusion of a crack mitigating layer containing an inorganic material between the glass substrate and the film.
