Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

This paper presents a result achieved for surface finishing of optical components for high-power carbon dioxide laser up to 20KW. The materials used for mirror are molybdenum and tungsten, and for window, beamsplitter and lense are zinc selenide and potassium cloride. The finished surfaces are evaluated for reflectance, damage threshold and absorption using 500W CW carbon dioxide laser. The results are compared with damaged layer generated by surface finishing.
