  • Patent number: 10100164
    Abstract: A manufacturing method that forms a multilayer thin film on the inner surface of a housing forming a transparent appearance of an electronic product to provide a deep metal texture and an electronic product having a metal texture provided at the inner surface of the housing. The multilayer thin film manufacturing method includes reforming an inner surface of a housing having an outer surface and the inner surface through plasma processing, depositing at least one hardness reinforcement layer on the inner surface, and depositing a color layer on the hardness reinforcement layer.

  • Patent number: 9845535
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of forming a multilayer thin film by depositing target particles, detached from a target by plasma discharge of inert gas, on a metal object using a multilayer thin film deposition apparatus and a multilayer thin film formed by the method. More specifically, a sputtering deposition apparatus is used as the multilayer thin film deposition apparatus. The method includes coating a metal object with a coating layer, depositing at least one hardness-enhancing layer on the coating layer, and depositing a color layer on the at least one hardness-enhancing layer.
