Leached antireflection surfaces Part 3. Chemical release data for leached BK-7 borosilicate glass

Abstract

Chemical release data for glass constituents and adsorption data for solution constituents onto the glass surface are presented for aqueous leaching of BK-7 glass. Marked differences in release rates were observed between film-forming and non-film-forming solutions due to adsorption of solution-derived Al3+ ions onto the glass surface.
