Abstract
A method for applying wear protection layers including the steps of depositing a wear protection matrix with the aid of a PECVD method, and incorporating optically functional inclusions in the form of particles or intermediate layers with the aid of a PVD process. The chemistry of the inclusion is influenced by the process gas of the PECVD deposition and/or the matrix layer. In an example embodiment of the present invention, the optical functionality consists in UV protection of plastics by dispersion, absorption, or reflection of the UV component of the light.
