<p>A transparent, scratch-resistant, amorphous, easily washed coating on a transparent substrate, together with a method for its preparation. A substrate such as glass is introduced into a sputtering chamber, a silicon-containing target is sputtered in an atmosphere comprising nitrogen and a hydrocarbon gas to produce on the substrate a film containing a carbide of silicon and a nitride of silicon. The film preferably has a thickness in the range of about 30 Å to about 500 Å, and its surface preferably exhibits a contact angle with water below about 25°. The protective coating may be applied directly to a transparent substrate such as glass, or may be applied as a protective coating over an optical film stack carried by the substrate. If desired, a glass substrate may be coated on one side with the optical film stack and coated on the opposite side with the protective coating.</p> |
