  • Patent number: 10718961
    Abstract: An aspect of the present invention relates to a spectacle lens including a multilayer film of a vapor deposition film (excluding a metal film and a metal alloy film) directly or indirectly at least on one surface of a lens substrate. The multilayer film includes at least one high refractive index layer and at least one low refractive index layer, the total optical film thickness of the high refractive index layer is ?/4 or more at a wavelength ?=780 nm, and a reflection spectrum measured in a wavelength range of 380 to 2000 nm on a surface having the multilayer film has a maximum reflectance in a wavelength range of 800 to 1350 nm.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10054715
    Abstract: An aspect of the present invention relates to an eyeglass lens comprising a lens substrate and a vapor-deposited film either directly or indirectly on the lens substrate, wherein the vapor-deposited film is an oxide film of metal selected from the group consisting of zirconium and tantalum, with an average grain size observed in a planar image obtained by a transmission electron microscope of equal to or greater than 3.5 nm and a proportion accounted for by grain boundaries, which are boundaries separating grains from regions outside of the grains, in a planar image obtained by a transmission electron microscope of less than 15%.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9927557
    Abstract: An aspect of the present invention relates to an eyeglass lens comprising a lens substrate and a vapor-deposited film either directly or indirectly on the lens substrate, wherein the vapor-deposited film is an oxide film of metal selected from the group consisting of zirconium and tantalum, with a proportion accounted for by regions observed in a streaky shape, in a columnar shape, or in a lump shape in a cross-sectional image of the vapor-deposited film obtained by a transmission electron microscope of equal to or less than 20%.

  • Patent number: 9022585
    Abstract: The disclosure includes producing a plastic lens with an antireflection film at a lower cost. The plastic lens is configured to include a plastic base material; and an antireflection film having an electrically conductive layer that is formed in contact with a surface of the plastic base material and that has colorless transparency, and an antireflection film main body that contains a metal oxide, formed on the electrically conductive layer.
