Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a method of applying an anti-reflective coating to an optical surface of a mold. In one embodiment, the method includes the steps of: providing a lens mold having an optical surface; forming a layer of a super hydrophobic material with a thickness of about 30 to 40 nm over the optical surface, wherein the super hydrophobic material contains dipodal silane; forming an anti-reflective coating layered structure over the layer of the super hydrophobic material; and forming a layer of a cyclic azasilane coupling agent that is deposited with a monolayer thickness to the anti-reflective coating layered structure using vapor deposition or by dip coating using a solution of cyclic azasilane coupling agent in an aprotic solvent.
