ABSTRACT:
Articles, including free-standing films, comprising a base comprising a polymer layer having a major surface; and an anti-reflective stack optically coupled to the base that reduces the reflectivity of the base at over a first wavelength range of interest. The anti-reflective stack comprises alternating layers of (i) high index polymer; and (ii) low index polymer. Methods of making such articles are also provided.
