Multiple subpicosecond pulse laser damage behavior of optical coatings in a vacuum environment

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The multiple-pulse damage threshold of dual-ion beam sputtered films show a drop to just 10% of the single-pulse damage threshold when tested in high vacuum. The drop is related to the background pressure of water vapor. Optical microscopy shows a change in the damage morphology.
