Ion assisted deposition of optical and protective coatings for heavy metal fluoride glass
Although attractive for optical applications in the near-uv-through-ir regions, many compositions are relatively soft, hygroscopic, and possess low softening points (250- 300 degrees C). IAD- deposited MgF sub 2 , SiO sub 2 , and Al sub 2 O sub 3 /SiO sub 2 thin-film structures on glass substrates a...

Zusammenfassung: | Although attractive for optical applications in the near-uv-through-ir regions, many compositions are relatively soft, hygroscopic, and possess low softening points (250- 300 degrees C). IAD- deposited MgF sub 2 , SiO sub 2 , and Al sub 2 O sub 3 /SiO sub 2 thin-film structures on glass substrates at approximately 100 degrees improved environmental durability of the glass and had reasonably good optical characteristics; without IAD the coatings were not durable and had poor adhesion. |
