Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, in the technique using fine particles, it is difficult to control the inclination and height of the fine periodic structure, and if the height for obtaining a sufficient anti-reflection effect is to be obtained, the inclination increases to cause scattering, and conversely, the light transmittance decreases
[0007] The method of forming a fine pattern by fine processing equipment has such disadvantages that not only does this patterning method require very large-scale equipment and thus a very high capital expenditure, but although this method is suitable for forming a pattern on a flat surface, Difficult to form patterns on complex shapes such as curved surfaces
Furthermore, this method is not suitable for application to general optics due to low throughput and difficult processing over large areas
[0008] The method of growing boehmite on a substrate is convenient and has high productivity, but alumina and boehmite are amphoteric compounds and thus are easily decomposed by acids and bases
Therefore, when the basic ions etc. of the base migrate to the surface and the surface becomes an alkaline environment due to the exchange action with water in the air, due to the decomposition of the surface, it becomes difficult to maintain the irregular shape, thereby degrading the performance
For substrates whose refractive index is significantly different from that of alumina, the difference in refractive index at the interface between the substrate and aluminum is so large that the antireflective properties are not sufficiently exhibited

example 1

[0084] A substrate of clear-float glass (composition: soda lime silicate type, refractive index ng=1.52) with a size of about 100 mm x 100 mm and a thickness of about 2 mm was ultrasonically cleaned with isopropanol, dried, And used as a glass substrate for coating.

[0085] Tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) was dissolved in ethanol (EtOH), 0.01 M phosphoric acid aqueous solution was added to the resulting solution as a catalyst, and the resulting mixture was stirred for 6 hours. At this time, the molar ratio of each component is TEOS: EtOH: H 3 PO 4 aq=1:40:2. Titanium n-butoxide (TBOT) was dissolved in ethanol, then ethyl acetoacetate (EAcAc) was added to the resulting solution as a stabilizer, and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. The molar ratio of each component was TBOT:EtOH:EAcAc=1:20:1. TiO 2 The sol solution was added to the aforementioned SiO 2 sol solution, so that the SiO 2 :TiO 2 =95:5 molar ratio, and the resulting mixture was stir...

[0092] An S-TIH53 glass substrate (manufactured by OHARA Corporation, refractive index n=1.84) with a size of about 50 mm×50 mm and a thickness of about 1 mm was ultrasonically cleaned with isopropanol, dried, and used as a glass substrate for coating .

[0093] TiO 2 The sol solution was added to the aforementioned SiO 2 sol solution, so that the SiO 2 :TiO 2 =7:3 molar ratio, and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours, and then used as SiO 2 -TiO 2 Coating solution, as described in Example 1. Next, the aforementioned coated glass substrate was immersed in this coating solution, and a coating film was formed on the surface of the glass substrate by a dipping method (at a lifting speed of 0.5 mm / sec, and at 20° C. and 56% R.H.). The glass substrate was dried and then heat-treated by baking at 400 °C for one hour, and transparent amorphous SiO 2 / TiO 2 A film is coated thereon. The thickness and refractive index of the obtained film were meas...

[0099] The same S-TIH53 glass substrate (manufactured by OHARA Corporation, refractive index n=1.84) as in Example 2 was used as the glass substrate for coating.

[0100] Coated SiO 2 / TiO2 (7 / 3), followed by the formation of transparent amorphous SiO in the same manner as in Example 2 2 / TiO 2 membrane. The thickness and refractive index of the obtained film were measured, and the measurement results showed that the thickness was 28 nm and the refractive index n s is 1.67.

[0101] Aluminum sec-butoxide [Al(O-sec-Bu) 3 ] was dissolved in 2-propanol [IPA], ethyl acetoacetate [EAcAc] was added to the resulting solution as a stabilizer, and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for about 3 hours to prepare Al 2 o 3 Sol solution. Here, the molar ratio of the solution is Al(O-sec-Bu) 3 :IPA:EAcAc=1:20:1. Titanium n-butoxide [Ti(O-n-Bu) 4 ] was also dissolved in IPA, EAcAc was added to the resulting solution, and the resulting mixture was stirred for appro...
