    摘要: The optical properties (absorption, reflection, transmittance, transparency) and physical attributes (hardness, friction, durability, etc.) of metal oxides, nitrides, or films that combine these materials can be modified by adding fluorine to the deposition mixture. The extent of change in properties depends on the amount of fluorine incorporated. Contrary to previous information, the presence of fluorine does not prevent adhesion of overlayers such as hard carbon, hydrogenated carbon, or diamond-like carbon. Considering for example massive silicon oxynitride hardcoat layers which are part of wear resistant composite windows for visible spectral applications, preferably fluorine is incorporated in a relatively very thin surface-adjacent region or layer of the hardcoat on the side thereof on which a carbonaceous layer such as DLC is formed. As a result, the index of refraction of the very thin surface region is reduced, the surface region can be used as an effective interference layer, absorption is reduced, reflectance is reduced, transmittance and transparency are improved, and durability is maintained. These fluorine-modified films can be used in many optical designs, including windows or wear resistant coating for laser scanner windows and ophthalmic applications.

    摘要: A package or wrapping comprised of a material in the form of a liquid or a solid which is sensitive to water and oxygen. A coated barrier film is sealed about the material and forms a sealed enclosure about the material and serves to protect the material from water vapor and oxygen. The coated barrier film has low oxygen and water permeability and comprises a flexible substantially transparent plastic substrate with first and second surfaces and a thickness ranging from 1 to 7 mils. A substantially colorless barrier coating is formed on at least one of the surfaces and consists solely of graphite free of hydrogen and has a thickness ranging from 50.ANG. to 300.ANG.. The barrier film has a reduced water transmission rate and a reduced oxygen transmission rate with respect to the uncoated substrate and has a visible transparency of 30% or greater.

    摘要: An attenuation filter contains absorbing thin film layers, which comprise gray metals or metal compounds. The attenuation filter offers significant advantages when used in optical communication systems subjected to a relatively high flux of incident light. It was surprisingly discovered that particular thin film materials provide significant protection to the attenuating thin film layer thereby improving the temporal stability and power handling capacity over prior art devices.
