摘要: A method for forming a chromium nitride coating over a substrate to provide a chromium nitride coated article, and the resulting chromium nitride coated article, each use a bilayer chromium nitride containing material layer. The bilayer chromium nitride containing material layer includes: (1) a first chromium nitride material layer having a first thickness, a first uniform chromium concentration and a first uniform nitrogen concentration located and formed closer to a substrate which provides the article; and (2) a second chromium nitride material layer having a second thickness, a second increasingly graded chromium concentration and a second decreasingly graded nitrogen concentration located and formed upon the first chromium nitride material layer. This particular bilayer chromium nitride containing material layer provides the article with superior reflectivity and crack resistance.

摘要: A method for forming a chromium nitride coating over a substrate to provide a chromium nitride coated article, and the resulting chromium nitride coated article, each use a bilayer chromium nitride containing material layer deposited over a UV-absorbing material layer deposited over a leveling material layer on the substrate. The bilayer chromium nitride containing material layer includes: (1) a first chromium nitride material layer having a first thickness, a first uniform chromium concentration and a first uniform nitrogen concentration located and formed closer to a substrate which provides the article; and (2) a second chromium nitride material layer having a second thickness, a second increasingly graded chromium concentration and a second decreasingly graded nitrogen concentration located and formed upon the first chromium nitride material layer. This particular bilayer chromium nitride containing material layer provides the article with superior reflectivity and crack resistance.

摘要: A method is disclosed for enhancing adhesion of a decorative metal layer to a polymeric primer that is a film on the surface of a substrate produced by a low-temperature cure. Substrates to which the polymeric primer is applied include metal, plastic or carbon fiber. The polymeric primer layer is treated with a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition to form a polysiloxane bonding interface layer to enhance the surface of the polymer primer layer to increase adhesion of the decorative metal layer deposited without the need for the use of specially made primers specifically made for the reception of metal layers applied physical vapor deposition.

摘要: A multi-layer PVD film stack contains high index of refraction base material(s), followed by a semi-transparent low index of refraction cap layer. The base layer(s) provide the color range of the film. The thickness of the cap layer dictates the degree to which the film retains the color properties of the base material and the reflectivity of the cap material. The cap layer not only increases the reflectivity of the base material, but it also decreases the reflectivity lost when the PVD film is topcoat lacquered. The lacquering is advantageous in protecting the PVD film but it decreases the reflectivity of the high index of refraction materials (generally n value>1.9 at 632 nm). These materials are desirable due to their color properties but are too dark after lacquering for many commercial applications. We address this problem by utilizing a high refractive index metal, or metals, as an opaque first layer followed by a thin semi-transparent second layer of a low refractive index metal. Upon topcoat lacquering, the resulting coating retains most of the aesthetically pleasing properties of the base metal(s) but minimizes the darkening of the metal(s) after topcoat due to the low refractive index of the second layer, which is in contact with the lacquer.

摘要: An evaporation source mechanism for rapid cycle coating. The evaporation source mechanism has a housing with a first deposition area on a first side and a second deposition area on a second side. The housing is movably connected to vacuum chamber such that the housing is rotatable relative to the vacuum chamber so that one side is in the deposition coating process and the other side is simultaneously loaded/reloaded. While one deposition area is in process under vacuum, the other is being prepared for the next cycle. When the coating cycle is complete, the housing swings from a port on the vacuum chamber, is rotated, and is then positioned with the second side of the housing against a sealing surface on the vacuum chamber wall. The coating system is away and electrically isolated from the loading/reloading of sources, permitting safe and efficient use of the equipment.
