Deposition Of Siox [Pyrosilr] On Glass Surfaces

The Pyrosilr-technique is a well known process which is used to produce SiOx layers in order to modify surfaces and their properties. SiOx coatings have the potential for several different applications, e.g. improved long-time stability and mechanical stability of hydrophobic coatings on glass, improved adhesion of organic coatings, antireflection and, therefore, transmission improving properties and so on. Current results and several different aspects for the application of this technology are presented in this article.
