Abstract
An optical element is provided that includes a substrate that is transparent in the visible spectral region and a multilayer anti-reflection coating on the substrate. The coating has alternating layers of layers having a first refractive index and of layers having a second, higher refractive index. The layers having the higher refractive index contain nitride or oxynitride and the layers having the first refractive index contain oxide of silicon and of at least one other element. The molar fraction of silicon in the layers having the first refractive index is predominant when compared to the molar fraction(s) of the other element or elements. The uppermost layer of the coating is a layer having the first refractive index. A layer of chain-form organofluoro molecules is disposed on the coating, wherein the molecules are bonded at the ends to the surface of the optical element.
