Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the adhesiveness to a protecting film and to prevent the degradation in reflectivity and film strength with respect to a reflecting mirror wherein aluminum for reflection is vapor-deposited on a substrate and the protecting film is provided thereon by vapor-depositing an aluminum film then oxidizing the same in an oxygen atmosphere. CONSTITUTION:A substrate 1 (glass) of a reflecting mirror is put in a vacuum depositing vessel, and is vapor-deposited thereon with Al, whereby an aluminum film 2a is obtained. O2 is introduced into the vapor-depositing vessel to treat and oxidize the aluminum film for 5min, whereby an aluminum oxide film 2b is obtained. Thereafter the degree of vacuum is increased, and the substrate 1 is heated to about 800 deg.C so that SiO2 or the like to form a layer 3 of a low refractive index material is vapor-deposited. This SiO2 layer 3 has good adhesiveness to the film 2b, and forms a stable layer. A high refractive index material of TiO2, etc. is vacuum-deposited thereon to provide a high refractive material layer 4, whereby the reflecting mirror is obtained.
