Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in order to impart water repellency to the surface of an optical member such as glass, it has been known to coat the surface of a base material with polysiloxane or a polyfluoro compound. However, these compounds have a problem that they have low adhesion strength with glass and are inferior in durability and abrasion resistance. Therefore, in order to supply a water-repellent member having high durability performance, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-205327 discloses that a polysiroquine compound is applied to the surface of a glass substrate and then the polysiloxane compound is applied to the glass substrate by corona discharge or ultraviolet irradiation. A method of sticking to a surface is disclosed.

The water-repellent member manufactured by the conventional method disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 205327 does not have sufficient durability and abrasion resistance because an organic substance is used for the outermost layer. Also,
Since this organic substance is applied by a method such as dip coating, it is difficult to precisely control the film thickness, and it is also difficult to obtain a uniform film thickness. For this reason, the water-repellent member produced by the conventional method is used only for automobiles and building window glass and mirrors that do not require high optical performance, and is used for camera lenses that require precise optical performance. It was not suitable for use as an optical component. Further, in the conventional manufacturing method, there is a problem that the process is complicated because a step of forming an antireflection film or the like in a vacuum chamber and then taking it out into the atmosphere and forming an organic substance on it is necessary. ..
