Abstract

The processes changing the state of polished surfaces of BK10 optical silicate glass are examined and the effect of the ambient environment on them is determined. It is found that hexamethyldisilazane vapor treatment of the polished surfaces of optical components fabricated from this glass results in the formation of a hydrophobic film that protects them from high humidity.
