Abstract

High-transparent polymers exhibiting a refractive index beyond 1.6 enhance the available range of optical plastics. The aim of this study is to evaluate optical polyesters (OKP-1 and OKP-4) and special new polycarbonates (PCs) (EP-6000 and EP-8000) in comparison with the widely used poly-bisphenol-A-based PC. The work is focused on optical properties as well as other properties that are important for the deposition of optical coatings. Plasma ion-assisted deposition is used for the deposition of an abrasion resistant antireflective coating (AR-hard).
