Abstract

A method for making a dry plating built-up film comprises providing silicon carbide as a starting source and subjecting to dry plating while changing a concentration of a reactive gas continuously or intermittently to deposit and form, on a substrate, a thin film having different refractive indices along its thickness. A method for making a sputter built-up film is also described, which comprising providing silicon carbide as a target and subjecting to sputtering while changing making electric power against the target continuously or intermittently to deposit and form a thin film having different refractive indices along its thickness.
