[GB2152703A]
Description
This invention relates to a method of producing an optical component and components produced thereby.
It is known to use synthetic plastics materials for optical components and these have several advantages over traditional glass and crystalline materials, such as resistance to thermal and mechanical shocks, lower production costs, reduced weight and greater design flexibility. Such plastics optical components are however, vulnerable to surface damage by abrasion, scratching and environmental conditions which often impair their function.
It is known that transparent scratch resistant layers may be deposited on to plastics material surfaces by dipcoating, ultra violet polymerisation and varnishing. Additional processing and end product problems are created, such as lack of thickness uniformity, variable adhesion to the plastic sub-strate gel formation on curing the coating and it is also generally expensive to produce at commercially acceptable efficiencies. The coating can be very specific to a particular plastic and deposition directly over metallic reflective finishes on the plastics material can present many problems.
There are many optical applications where it is required to produce an abrasion-resistant specular reflective finish onplastics material substrates.
This can be achieved in a number of ways including electro-chemical deposition of a hard reflective metal such as chromium or nickel onto the front surface of a clear or opaque plastics material, usually acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymers. This method is very costly and prone to production problems. It also produces a mirror-like product of lower reflectivity than is achieved by conventional silver or aluminium surfaces. Despite the use of a relatively inert plastics base material for the mirror the multi-metal layer electroplating process can also give rise to troublesome electrolytic corrosion problems when the mirror is exposed to adverse environmental conditions. A further technique involves thermal evaporation of aluminium on to the rear surface of an already coated transparent plastics material, the coating of which is abrasion resistant to a degree and previously deposited by a separate and costly wet chemical process. Articles produced by this technique are limited by the size, shape and configuration of the basic coated plastics materials, usually in flat-sheet form, and are expensive by virtue of the multi-stage production methods involved.
Vacuum assisted metal deoosition onto untreated plastics material followed by a wet chemical coating process to confer abrasion resistance is also known but this is again costly ana prone to optical faults.
It is an object of the present invention to overcome the above drawbacks.
According to one aspect of the present invention a method of making an optical component having specular reflective properties from plastics material comprises subjecting the plastics material to a degreasing operation by vapour degreasing in a fluorocarbon solvent 4 and then transferring the material to an uLtrasonically vibrated heated solution of the same solvent, performing a molecular cleaning operation (that is subjecting plastics material to a low pressure inert atmosphere in a vacuum vessel, applying a voltage to electrodes situated within the vacuum vessel to produce aglow discharge to provide a surface treatment) applying by magnetron sputtering a layer of hard glass or a substance having hard glass-like properties to a thickness of between O'. 5 and 1.0 microns thick and subsequently applying a coating of specular reflective material, said coating being between 0.5 and 5.0 microns thick.
Preferably also the glass or glass-like layer is formed by applying a coating of oxides of the material used for the specular reflective properties, said coating of oxides being applied in a vacuum vessel in an atmosphere of oxygen and argon. The layer of oxides may be applied by means of a magnetron sputtering operation in a vacuum vessel in an atmosphere of oxygen and argon at a pressure in the region of 2 x 10 mbar.
Immediately after the molecular cleaning operation the vacuum vessel may_ be reduced to 1 x 10 ^ mbar pressure and argon gas is introduced until the pressure -4 reaches 5 x 10 mbar, oxygen then being added until the pressure has risen to 2 x 10 mbar.
The layer of oxides may be built up to the said thickness of between 0.5 and 1.0 microns by means of a magnetron sputtering operation using a target of the metal to be deposited to form the said layer. The coating of reflective material may be applied directly to the glass or glass-like layer, and in this case the reflective material may be applied by means of a DC magnetron sputtering operation using target power density levels increased 5 555013 2 2 gradually from 4W/cm to 12W/cm until the layer thickness of 0.5 to 5.0 microns is achieved.
The coating of specular reflective material may be chromium to a thickness of 0.5 to 5 5.0 microns thick.
Alternatively the coating of specular reflective material may be aluminium. In this case a hard abrasion resistant top coat may be applied to the aluminium by sputtering with the 10 assistance of R.F. field. A hard abrasion resistant top coat may be applied to the aluminium by electron beam evaporation. The top coat may comprise a layer of dielectric oxide of between 0.5 and 5.0 microns thick.
The invention also includes within its scope an optical component formed by the method set forth.
The invention may be performed in various ways and one specific embodiment will now be described 20 by way of example. 6 6 SSO 13 In this example the plastics base material comprises a polycondensate polymer prepared by the interaction of a polyhydroxy compound with a carbonic acid derivative, typically the reaction product of bis-phenol-A with either 5 phosgene or diphenyl carbonate which is available commercially under the Trade Name "Lexan" polycarbonate and manufactured by the General Electric Co. U.S.A. An appropriate shape and size may be obtained either by a conventional thermoplastics injection process or by cutting to a given, desired 10 profile from precision manufactured extruded sheet.
The base material is vapour degreased in a fluorocarbon solvent, typically "Arklon" P (ICI) for three minutes, then transferred to an ultrasonical'ly vibrated heated solution of the same solvent for a further three minutes for 15 cleaning. A final vapour degreasing of three minutes duration may be given. The plastics material is then transferred to an appropriate location jig in a process vacuum vessel, this operation being carried out under strictconditions of cleanliness.
The vacuum vessel is sealed and pumped out to a pressure of 1 x 10-^ mbar. Argon is then introduced until the pressure rises to 1 x 10~* mbar. A voltage of 1.5 kilovolts AC is then applied to electrodes situated within the vacuum vessel and in close proximinity to the base plas-25 tics material surface which is to be processed. The glow discharge so initiated is held for a period of up to 20 minutes during which the plastics surface receives a ‘tnole-cular cleaning" and which treatment in effect although termed 7 55013 cleaning provides a surface treatment which makes it more receptive to receive the coating layer as described below.
After the molecular cleair.g a reactive oxidation process to provide a key coat face layer is carried out as 5 follows. The vessel is re-pumped to 1 x 10-5 mbar pressure and argon gas is introduced until the pressure reaches -4 5 x 10 mbar. Oxygen is then added until the pressure has risen to 2 x 10"^ mbar.
A magnetron sputtering operation using a chromium 10 target is then initiated within the vacuum chamber and the charged chromium atoms interact reactively with oxygen so as to deposit the key coat layer of chromium oxides onto the surface of the adjacent polycarbonate. This layer consists of one or more oxides of chromium and possibly also the 15 metal itself. The layer is preferably 0.5 - 1.0 microns thick.
The oxygen supply is then discontinued and a coven-tional DC magnetron sputtering of chromium initiated at target power density levels which gradually increase from 2 2 20 4 W/cm to 12 W/cm . This gradual deposition of chromium onto the chromium oxide key coat layer ensures that a stress-free film is deposited. It is known in the art that thin layers of chromium are prone to either compressive or tensile stresses and care is necessary at this stage. Typically a 25 reflective layer thickness of from 0.5 to 5.0 microns is applied.
Although the invention has been described with reference to chromium oxides and a chromium multi-layer system 530 13 8 it is-not limited thereto.
For example a more highly reflective aluminium mirror can be produced in a similar manner with a reactively sputtered aluminium layer which would be 5 similar to the chromium layer and consist of aluminium oxides and possibly aluminium metal itself, followed by a layer of aluminium metal. In the case of a softer metal such as this, it may be necessary to apply a hard abrasion resistant top coat of a 10 dielectric oxide such as an oxide of silicon either by sputtering with the assistance of an RF field or by an electron beam evaporation. Both techniques are well known to those skilled in the art. A typical thickness range for this top coat would be 15 0.5 to 5.0 microns.
Alternatively the hard abrasion resistant top coat layer may be deposited by the direct in vacuo vaporization of an already formed glass material e.g. borosilicate glass using electron beams or conventional electrical heating devices to induce vaporization.
