PLASTIC OPTICAL COMPONENT HAVING A REFLECTION PREVENTION FILM AND MECHANISM FOR MAKING REFLECTION PREVENTION FILM THICKNESS UNIFORM

摘要

Plastic optical devices in which an antireflection film (13) is coated on the surface of a plastic base material (10). The antireflection film (13) is a multi-layered film which is formed by depositing a first layer (131) on the side of the plastic base material substantially by a high-refractive material and the next layer (132) by a low-refractive material, and by alternately laminating those high-refractive materials and low-refractive materials. The surface of the optical lens base material (10) has curvature and a plurality of the optical lens base materials (10) are disposed horizontally at the positions of concentric circles in a circular plate holder (26) which is placed horizontally and is rotatable. A sputtering film deposition system comprises targets (31) facing to the surfaces of the optical lens base materials (10). Thickness correcting plates function as mask members (51, 52) for regulating the difference of film thickness disposed in the direction connecting the peripheral part and the center part in the holder and between the targets (31) and the holder (26). <IMAGE>
