METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRODUCING A REFLECTION-REDUCING LAYER ON A SUBSTRATE

摘要

The invention relates to an apparatus (1) for producing a reflection-reducing layer on a surface (21) of a plastics substrate (20). The apparatus comprises a first sputtering device (3) for applying a base layer (22) to the surface (21) of the plastics substrate (20), a plasma source (4) for plasma-etching the coated substrate surface (21), and a second sputtering device (5) for applying a protective layer (24) to the substrate surface (21). These processing devices (3, 4, 5) are arranged jointly in a vacuum chamber (2), which has inlets (8) for processing gases. In order to move the substrate (20) between the processing devices (3, 4, 5) in the interior of the vacuum chamber (2), a conveying apparatus (10) is provided which is preferably in the form of a rotary table (11). - Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for producing such a reflection-reducing layer on the surface (21) of the plastics substrate (20).
