Anti-Glare Glass/Substrate Via Novel Specific Combinations of Dry and Wet Processes

摘要

Methods for depositing layers by PVD, wherein the PVD process parameters are selected to impart porosity in the layer are described. The porous layers are then exposed to a vapor or liquid binder material to fill the pores and increase the mechanical strength of the layer and the adhesion of the layer. Optionally, a curing step may be applied to the layer. Methods for depositing polycrystalline metal oxide layers using PVD or CVD are described. Optionally, the layers are exposed to an anneal step. The polycrystalline metal oxide layers are then exposed to a vapor or liquid texturing reagent to texture the surface of the layer.

1. A method for forming an anti-glare coating, the method comprising:
depositing a layer above a substrate, wherein the layer comprises pores; exposing the layer to a binder material wherein the binder material penetrates into the layer and fills the pores; and exposing the layer to a texturing reagent to etch the layer thereby increasing the surface roughness of the layer and enhancing an anti-glare property of the layer.
