“…In the literature [39][40][41], several black coatings based on the same optical principle (thick, semi-transparent coatings, based on Al, Ti Cr in combination with O, N, C, with an index of refraction n c < 3 and 0.1 < k c < 1 can be found, but the reported variation of the surface roughness and there for the transition from piano-black to matt appearance seems to be typical for Cr 0.35 O 0.53 C 0.12 .…”

PVD coatings have gained considerable attention as decorative coatings because they combine decorative with protective properties. Within the frame of this work, a black PVD coating based on chromium, carbon and oxygen was developed in a semi-industrial coating machine with four magnetrons and continuous substrate rotation. Based on the optical properties of CrxCyOz, the optical properties of the coating can be used in the design of the coating. EDX measurements point to an average composition of Cr0.35O0.53C0.12 for coatings with the most interesting optical properties. XPS measurements show that the chemical state of the constituting elements changes throughout the coating thickness. CrxCyOz shows a strong columnar growth which may give origin to a rough surface structure. This effect, depending on the coating thickness, allows the deposition of black coatings with a variation of strong specular reflection (“piano black”) and diffuse reflection (“matt”) for a coating thickness variation between 1 and 5 μm. The diffusive reflection increased from almost 2% to 6% for the thicker samples whereby the specular reflection decreased from about 20% to almost 0 of the samples with a thin coating and samples with a coating thickness close to 5 μm. Within the frame of this work, we also determined the functional properties of adherence and surface energy, which show that the coating can be used in demanding applications without an additional protective topcoat.

“…Although all the above approaches can be used to generate colors, it is extremely difficult to attain the structural colors with both high purity and good mechanical properties. At the same time, because the difference in the thermal expansion coefficients between the film layers is usually large, residual stress may affect its mechanical properties and limit practical applications …”

Full‐Color Reflective Filters in a Large Area with a Wide‐Band Tunable Absorber Deposited by One‐Step Magnetron Sputtering

Full‐color reflective filters for large area applications with potentially unprecedented color saturation and excellent mechanical properties deposited by one‐step magnetron sputtering are proposed. Conventional reflective color filters with multiple layers of dielectric films cannot simultaneously produce a large area and good mechanical properties due to the complex multiple depositions and the difference in the thermal expansion coefficients among the material layers. Herein, full‐spectrum colors are generated by novel Mg‐based reflective color filters in a large area of 2 cm × 2 cm with a high hardness of 9.12 GPa, where the filters include an absorber layer with controllable optical constants and a reflective layer with an amorphous structure. The saturation and hue of the produced colors can be controlled by tuning the optical constants and the thickness of the absorber layer. Additionally, the hardness of the Mg‐based reflective color filters is increased by the reflective metallic glass layers because they are derived from the same material as the absorber layer. This paradigm can pave the way for the efficient fabrication of large area color filtering devices for diverse applications, such as surface decorations, optical components, color display devices, structural color printing, and photovoltaic cells with optimum efficiency.
