Sol-Gel Processing For Porous Silica Antireflective Coatings

An antireflective (AR) film produced by incorporation of polyethylene glycol (PEG) in the sol is compared to one produced using an "aged sol". Ageing of the sol improved the AR properties only marginally, while incorporating organic polymer with the precursor solution is a more effective method of increasing the porosity of films and transmission of the glass substrate. It was also found that the films prepared from a sol containing a higher molecular weight polymer had more porosity and higher transmission.
