Abstract: A micro- and nano-hot embossing method for an optical glass lens array, including: preparing a mold with a micro-hole array by micro EDM, where the micro-hole array matches an optical glass lens array and the mold is made of a hard metal material which is conductive and meets strength and temperature requirements; preparing a nano nitride-based graded composite coating on a surface of the mold by magnetron sputtering; and pre-fabricating a glass preform and then placing the glass preform on the surface of the mold; heating the glass preform and hot embossing by a glass molding machine in vacuum; cooling in nitrogen atmosphere; and demolding to produce the optical glass lens array. The micro- and nano-hot embossing method of the present invention improves the surface quality of the optical glass lens array and reduces the cost and difficulty for manufacturing.

Abstract: Disclosed is a coating made of an organic material on a mold for glass molding. The coating comprises CrxWyN(1-x-y), where 0.15<x<0.4, and 0.2?y?0.45. The coating has excellent high temperature resistance and anti-adhesion properties, thus being a promising coating material for molds.

Abstract: Disclosed are coatings made of inorganic materials on molds for glass molding, particularly, a graded coating of element diffusion inhibition and adhesion resistance on molds for glass molding. The graded coating includes a Cr adhesion layer which is bonded with a substrate, a CrN intermediate layer and a CrxWyN(1-x-y) surface layer, where 0.15<x<0.4, and 0.2?y<0.45. The graded coating has excellent crack growth suppression and adhesion resistance.
