Abstract
We prepared optical thin films of several fluoride materials using ion-assisted deposition. The materials were selected for their transmittance in the near ultraviolet and include LaF3, CeF3, NdF3, and cryolite. We investigated the effects of the ion species, beam energy, and beam current density on thin-film properties.
