Effect of electric field on laser induced damage threshold of multilayer dielectric gratings.
This paper studies gratings engraved in multilayer dielectric stacks for ultra high intensity laser compressors application. We design various grating profiles with high reflected efficiencies for 1780 l/mm multilayer dielectric gratings (MLD). Each grating is defined to exhibit a different electric field maximum value in the pillars of the grating. A damage testing facility operating at 1.053 ...
متن کاملChirped multilayer coatings for broadband dispersion control in femtosecond lasers.
The relevance of intracavity dispersion control in passively mode-locked ultrashort-pulse laser was recognized soon after the appearance of the first systems operating in the femtosecond domain.' Negative dispersion that is due to wavelengthdependent refraction in a pair of Brewster-angled prisms combined with positive material dispersion proved to be an efficient and convenient means of contro...
متن کاملImpact of substrate surface scratches on the laser damage resistance of multilayer coatings
Substrate scratches can limit the laser resistance of multilayer mirror coatings on high-peak-power laser systems. To date, the mechanism by which substrate surface defects affect the performance of coating layers under high power laser irradiation is not well defined. In this study, we combine experimental approaches with theoretical simulations to delineate the correlation between laser damag...
متن کاملOptimized multilayer dielectric mirror coatings for gravitational wave interferometers
The limit sensitivity of interferometric gravitational wave antennas is set by the thermal noise in the dielectric mirror coatings. These are currently made of alternating quarter-wavelength high/low index material layers with low mechanical losses. The quarter-wavelength design yields the maximum reflectivity for a fixed number of layers, but not the lowest noise for a prescribed reflectivity....
متن کاملFemtosecond laser damage resistance of oxide and mixture oxide optical coatings.
We report on the laser damage resistance of ion beam-sputtered oxide materials (Al2O3, Nb2O5, HfO2, SiO2, Ta2O5, ZrO2) and mixtures of Al2O3-SiO2, Nb2O5-SiO2, HfO2-SiO2, Ta2O5-SiO2, and ZrO2-SiO2, irradiated by single 500 fs pulses at 1030 nm. Laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT), refractive index, and bandgaps of the single-layer coatings are measured. For pure oxide materials a linear evolut...
