Abstract
Laser evaporation for the deposition of optical thin films is a very promising new technique for thin-film fabrication. Localized heating, stoichiometric evaporation, and energetic deposition are a few of its novel features. In this work, thin films of PbF2, ZrO2, and other thin-film materials, deposited by cw and pulsed CO2 laser radiation, are compared. Optical, structural, and chemical analyses are discussed.
