Abstract
The research proposal was used hafnium dioxide (HfO2) and silicon dioxide (SiO2) as the high and low refractive index for the multilayer anti-reflection (AR) films were deposited on a flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) by electron-beam evaporator with ion-beam assisted deposition (IAD). The optical and stress properties of these multilayer (HfO2/SiO2)2 films were investigated. A homemade phase-shifting shadow moiré interferometer was used the automatic measurement system to catch the interferograms and calculated the residual stress of flexible electronics. The experimental results show the optimal oxygen flow of HfO2 and SiO2 were 15 and 25 sccm, respectively, for the multilayer anti-reflection coating (AR coating) with electron-beam evaporator. The 1st and 2nd layers have light thickness resulted from low ion-assisted energy, so the stress generation is very low. Since the compressive stress is not generated until the 3rd and 4th layers. However, the stress is reduced after high and low refractive index stacking, and the final residual stress of (HfO2/SiO2)2 multilayers on the PET is -473.37 MPa.
