Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass iridescent lens technology, and in particular to a glass iridescent lens. Background Technology

[0002] Iridescent lenses, as optical elements with decorative visual effects, have been widely used in recent years in fashion eyewear, sunglasses, sports goggles, and various consumer electronics components. By forming a special optical structure layer on the lens substrate, the lens displays vibrant colors under light, enhancing the product's aesthetic appeal and added value. Currently, the mainstream technology for achieving iridescent effects on glass lenses is physical vapor deposition (PVD) coating technology. Specifically, this involves alternately depositing multiple layers of dielectric thin films with different refractive indices on the glass substrate surface using methods such as electron beam evaporation or magnetron sputtering. Specific colors are generated through the principle of thin-film interference. For example, Chinese patent application publication number CN105445821A discloses a technical solution for a lens with self-cleaning and iridescent function and its preparation method.

[0003] However, existing iridescent glass lenses based on multilayer thin-film interference still suffer from several significant technical drawbacks in practice: limited and fixed colors, insufficient visual depth, and inadequate stability and durability of the iridescent effect. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a novel iridescent glass lens structure that can overcome these shortcomings and provide a product with rich and varied colors, dynamic visual effects, and excellent durability. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a glass iridescent lens to address the technical problems of existing iridescent lenses, such as limited color and insufficient visual depth.

[0005] A glass iridescent lens includes a glass substrate, an iridescent layer, a reinforcing layer, and a composite protective layer; the iridescent layer is disposed on one side surface of the glass substrate; the reinforcing layer is disposed on the side surface of the iridescent layer facing away from the glass substrate; and the composite protective layer is disposed on the side surface of the reinforcing layer facing away from the iridescent layer, thereby forming a composite lens structure stacked sequentially.

[0006] The iridescent layer formed on the glass substrate is configured as a multilayer film stack consisting of alternating layers of high-refractive-index dielectric film and low-refractive-index dielectric film, and the thickness of the high-refractive-index dielectric film and the low-refractive-index dielectric film varies non-periodically along the stacking direction, thereby forming a composite coating layer with iridescent effect; the reinforcement layer formed on the iridescent layer is provided with a periodically arranged nanograting structure.

[0007] In one embodiment, in the non-periodic multilayer film stack of the above-mentioned iridescent layer, the thickness of each dielectric film can be determined according to the actual color requirements.

[0008] In one embodiment, the high refractive index dielectric film layer in the aforementioned iridescent layer is titanium dioxide. or tantalum pentoxide The first one in the membrane layer.

[0009] In one embodiment, the low-refractive-index dielectric film in the aforementioned iridescent layer is silicon dioxide. Membrane.

[0010] In one embodiment, a functional layer is further provided between the reinforcing layer and the composite protective layer, and the functional layer serves as a photochromic layer structure.

[0011] In one embodiment, the functional layer comprises at least one of silver halide and spiroxazine photochromic compounds, and is filled onto the surface of the nanograting structure of the reinforcement layer by spin coating.

[0012] In one embodiment, the arrangement period of the nanograting structure of the above-mentioned enhancement layer is 300 nanometers to 500 nanometers.

[0013] In one embodiment, the composite protective layer comprises a hardening layer, an antireflective layer, and a hydrophobic and oleophobic layer stacked sequentially from the inside out.

[0014] In one embodiment, the aforementioned hardening layer is an organic-inorganic hybrid silicon coating.

[0015] In one embodiment, the antireflective layer is magnesium fluoride. Membrane.

[0016] In one embodiment, the hydrophobic and oleophobic layer described above is a fluorinated silane coating.

[0017] In one embodiment, the total thickness of the aforementioned iridescent layer is 1 micrometer to 3 micrometers.

[0018] In one embodiment, the aforementioned iridescent glass lens is prepared through the following steps: providing a glass substrate and cleaning it; sequentially depositing a non-periodic high-refractive-index dielectric film layer and a low-refractive-index dielectric film layer on the glass substrate using physical vapor deposition to form an iridescent layer; spin-coating a layer of UV-curable resin onto the coating surface, and forming a nanoscale periodic grating structure on the surface of the UV-curable resin using nanoimprint lithography to constitute a reinforcement layer; uniformly coating the photochromic resin liquid onto the nano-grating structure layer using precision coating technology, and curing it to form a functional layer; preparing a composite protective layer on the reinforcement layer, applying a silicon-based hardening liquid by immersion coating, curing, and depositing it by vacuum deposition. Antireflective coatings are applied by vapor deposition or impregnation to form a fluorinated hydrophobic layer.

[0019] The aforementioned glass iridescent lens achieves a synergistic effect of two physical effects through the interference structure formed by the iridescent layer in the form of a non-periodic film stack and the diffraction structure formed by the reinforcement layer with a nano-grating structure. Within a stable stacked structure, this produces an iridescent optical effect with rich colors, smooth and continuous transitions, strong dynamic changes with viewing angle, and excellent durability, as well as aesthetic value and practicality. Specifically, the iridescent layer forms an interference structure by colloidally combining a high-refractive-index dielectric film with a non-periodic variation in thickness and a low-refractive-index dielectric film. When illuminated by white light, the entire film can simultaneously reflect a wider range of colors across the spectrum, creating a continuous, smooth, aurora-like color transition. This avoids abrupt breaks in color banding and greatly enhances the richness and aesthetic appeal of the colors. Based on the nano-grating structure of the reinforcement layer, light undergoes diffraction when passing through its periodic structure, dispersing different wavelengths of light in different directions. This is coupled with the interference effect of the iridescent layer, thereby enhancing color saturation, complexity, and dynamic visual effects. Furthermore, placing the reinforcement layer inside the composite protective layer isolates the nano-grating structure from the external environment, thus strengthening the overall abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, and lifespan of the lens.

[0032] Furthermore, the arrangement period of the nanograting structure 31 of the enhancement layer 30 is 300 nanometers to 500 nanometers, thereby ensuring the diffraction effect of the enhancement layer 30.

[0033] Furthermore, the composite protective layer 40 includes a hardening layer 41, an antireflective layer 42, and a hydrophobic and oleophobic layer 43 stacked sequentially from the inside out, thereby enhancing the stability, toughness, antireflective effect, and hydrophobic and oleophobic properties of the lens surface.

Specifically, the iridescent layer forms an interference structure by colloidally combining a high-refractive-index dielectric film with a non-periodic variation in thickness and a low-refractive-index dielectric film. When illuminated by white light, the entire film can simultaneously reflect a wider range of colors across the spectrum, creating a continuous, smooth, aurora-like color transition. This avoids abrupt breaks in color banding and greatly enhances the richness and aesthetic appeal of the colors.
