The application provides a multispectral
coating method of a
linear gradient filter and the
linear gradient filter, and the method comprises the following steps: S1, placing
optical glass into a
cleaning agent for ultrasonic cleaning to obtain a substrate of the
linear gradient filter to be coated; S2, placing the substrate into a reaction cavity of a
radio frequency magnetron, closing the reaction cavity, and setting environmental parameters for multispectral
coating; S3, under the environmental parameters, using a double-target
radio frequency magnetron to sputter and deposit target materials on the surface of the substrate, wherein SiO2 and Si are used as the target materials of the double-target, and the power interval of the
radio frequency magnetron is adjusted to switch the
sputtering and deposition of the target materials of different target positions alternately; and S4, closing the
radio frequency magnetron, keeping the reaction cavity airtight, naturally cooling the reaction cavity to a preset
cooling temperature, opening the reaction cavity, and taking out the substrate with the
coating as the linear gradient filter. The application has a simple process, good
infrared spectral performance of the filter product, and is suitable for various scenes.
