Theory and measurement of surface and bulk scattering in optical multilayers used as classical filters or waveguides

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

Last year we showed how to separate substrate effects from all other effects in a study of light scattering from optical multilayers. In particular, we gave the residual roughness values for different materials obtained by IAD and IP processes. These values explain the additional scattering characteristic of the materials and are not due to reproduction of substrate defects.
