The substances are chosen from the group: germanium, zinc selenide, zinc sulfide, chalcogenide glasses, thorium fluoride, yttrium fluoride, and praseodymium fluoride. The layers are applied to an infrared transmitting substrate of a material of the group: germanium, zinc selenide, zinc sulfide and chalcogenide glasses. An intermediate layer is disposed between the thin layers and the infrared transmitting substrate and this has a maximum thickness of 100 nm and comprises a material of the group: hafnium oxide, yttrium oxide, and scandium oxide.
