It should be noted that regarding sputtering conditions, targets 4A and 4B were used: MgF 2 -SiO 2 Sintered body (MgF 2 : SiO 2 =70:30 atomic percent); sputtering gas: Ar; and reaction gas: O 2 As a common condition, and with vacuum chamber 1 inside 5 x 10 -4 Ar gas is introduced at a back pressure below Pa, and pre-sputtering is performed. Subsequently, a low-refractive-index film was prepared under the following deposition conditions. It should be noted that (O 2 Gas flow ratio) = (O 2 gas flow) / {(O 2 Gas flow)+(Ar gas flow)}×100(%).

Abstract

This invention provides a method for low-refractive index film formation, which can form a thin film having a uniform composition distribution within the film and a low-refractive index, a low-refractive index film formed by the method for low-refractive index film formation, and an antireflection film using the low-refractive index film. The method for low-refractive index film formation comprises forming a low-refractive index film formed of MgF2-SiO2 on a substrate (11) by reactive sputtering. Targets (4A, 4B) as a sinter of MgF2-SiO2 are provided. An alternating voltage having a frequencyof 20 to 90 kHz is applied across the substrate (11) and the targets (4A, 4B) under a mixed gas atmosphere composed of inert gas and O2 for sputtering deposition.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a low-refractive-index film deposited by a reactive sputtering method, a deposition method thereof, and an antireflection film (antireflection film) including the low-refractive-index film. Background technique [0002] Generally, in a display device such as a cathode ray tube (CRT) or a liquid crystal display, an antireflection film is provided on a surface on which an image is displayed. The anti-reflection film is provided to reduce reflection of external light, thereby reproducing preferable image or text information, and is formed by stacking thin film materials having different refractive indices. [0003] Such an anti-reflection film is obtained by, for example, stacking a low-refractive-index layer composed of a low-refractive-index material such as silicon oxide, silicon nitride, or magnesium fluoride on a transparent film base composed of an organic material and a material such as indium oxide containing tin o...
