  • Publication number: 20190390321
    Abstract: Provided is a film-formation method for a surface layer having high mechanical strength and a low refractive index. A step of film formation from a vapor deposition material by a vacuum vapor deposition method and a step of film formation by sputtering of a target constituent substance are repeated for the surfaces of substrates (S), thereby forming films with a lower refractive index than that of a film-forming material.
