Abstract

The polymer-substrate structures based on (1-5 wt.%) Ag-PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate) and Ag-PHEMA (poly-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) nanostructures on the glass substrates have been fabricated by the methods of chemical and photochemical reduction of metals from the solutions of their own salts in a polymer medium. The researches of optical properties of the coatings based on obtained nanomaterials allow making the conclusion about their possible use as an antireflective medium for the glass substrates.
