真空退火对355nm Al2O3/MgF2高反射薄膜性能的影响

 采用电子束蒸发沉积技术制备了355nm Al₂O₃/MgF₂ 高反射薄膜，并在真空中进行不同温度梯度的退火，用X射线衍射（XRD）观察了薄膜微结构的变化，用355nm Nd：YAG脉冲激光测试了薄膜的激光损伤阈值，用Lambda 900光谱仪测试了薄膜的透过和反射光谱。结果表明在工艺条件相同的条件下真空退火过程对薄膜的性能有很大的影响，退火温度梯度越小的样品，吸收越小，阈值越大，并且是非晶结构。选择合适的真空退火过程可以减少355nm Al₂O₃/MgF₂ 高反射膜的膜层吸收，提高薄膜的激光损伤阈值。     

Working Pressure Dependence of Properties of Al2O3 Thin Films Prepared by Electron Beam Evaporation

The effects of working pressure on properties of Al2O3 thin films are investigated. Transmittance of the Al2O3 thin film is measured by a Lambda 900 spectrometer. Laser-induced damage threshold （LIDT） is measured by a Nd：YAG laser at 355 nm with a pulse width of 7ns. Microdefects were observed under a Nomarski microscope. The samples are characterized by optical properties and defect, as well as LIDT under the 355 nm Nd：YAG laser radiation. It is found that the working pressure has fundamental effect on the LIDT. It is the absorption rather than the microdefect that plays an important role on the LIDT of Al2O3 thin film.     

Influence of LiB3O5 Structure on Microstructure and Optical Properties of ZrO2 Thin Films Prepared by Electron Beam Evaporation

ZrO2 thin films were deposited by using an electron beam evaporation technique on three kinds of lithium triborate (LIB3O5 or LBO) substrates with the surfaces at specified crystalline orientations. The influences of the LBO structure on the structural and optical properties of ZrO2 thin films are studied by spectrophotometer and x-ray diffraction. The results indicate that the substrate structure has obvious effects on the structural and optical properties of the film: namely, the ZrO2 thin film deposited on the X-LBO, Y-LBO and Z-LBO orients to m(-212), rn(021) and o(130) directions. It is also found that the ZrO2 thin film with m(021) has the highest refractive index and the least lattice misfit.     

1 053，527，351 nm倍频分离膜的制备与性能研究

 用电子束蒸发及光电极值监控技术在石英基底上沉积了三倍频分离膜，将部分样品置空气中于250 ℃温度下进行3 h热退火处理。然后用Lambda900分光光度计测量了样品的光谱性能；用表面热透镜技术测量了样品的弱吸收值；用调Q脉冲激光装置测试了样品分别在355 nm和1 064 nm的抗激光损伤阈值。实验结果发现，样品的实验光谱性能良好，退火前后其光谱性能几乎没有发生温漂，说明薄膜的温度稳定性好；同时弱吸收平均值从退火前的1.07×10^-4下降到退火后的6.2×10^-5，从而使对基频的抗激光损伤阈值提高，从14.6 J/cm²上升到18.8 J/cm²，但是三倍频阈值在退火后有显著降低，从7.5 J/cm²下降到2.5 J/cm²。     

三硼酸锂晶体上1064 nm,532 nm,355 nm三倍频增透膜的设计

采用矢量法设计了三硼酸锂晶体上1064 nm、532 nm和355 nm三倍频增透膜,结果表明1064 nm、532 nm和355 nm波长的剩余反射率分别为0.0017%、0.0002%和0.0013%。根据误差分析,薄膜制备时沉积速率精度控制在 5.5%时,1064 nm、532 nm和355 nm波长的剩余反射率分别增加至0.20%、0.84%和1.89%。当材料折射率的变化控制在 3%时,1064 nm处的剩余反射率增大为0.20%,532 nm和355 nm处分别达0.88%和0.24%。与薄膜物理厚度相比,膜层折射率对剩余反射率的影响大。对膜系敏感层的分析表明,在1064 nm和355 nm波长,从入射介质向基底过渡的第二层膜的厚度变化对剩余反射率的影响最大,其次是第一膜层。在532 nm波长,第一和第三膜层是该膜系的敏感层。同时发现,由于薄膜材料的色散,1064 nm5、32 nm和355 nm波长的剩余反射率分别增加至0.15%、0.31%和1.52%。     

optical, Structural and Laser-Induced Damage Threshold Properties of HfO2 Thin Films Prepared by Electron Beam Evaporation

We prepare HfO2 thin films by electron beam evaporation technology. The samples are annealed in air after deposition. With increasing annealing temperature, it is found that the absorption of the samples decreases firstly and then increases. Also, the laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) increases firstly and then decreases.When annealing temperature is 473 K, the sample has the highest LID T of 2.17 J/cm^2, and the lowest absorption of 18ppm. By investigating the optical and structural characteristics and their relations to LIDT, it is shown that the principal factor dominating the LIDT is absorption.     

LBO晶体上ZrO2薄膜的显微结构和光学性质

用电子束蒸发方法在三种不同取向的三硼酸锂(LiB3O5,简称LBO)晶体上沉积了ZrO2薄膜.采用分光光度计和X射线衍射技术对LBO晶体基底结构对薄膜光学性质和显微结构的影响进行了研究.实验结果表明基底结构对薄膜的显微结构和光学性质具有明显影响,即X-LBO,Y-LBO和Z-LBO上沉积的ZrO2薄膜分别沿m(-212),m(021)和o(130)择优生长,且m(021)择优取向的ZrO2薄膜具有最高的折射率和最小的晶格不匹配.     

Influence of deposition rate on the properties of ZrO_2 thin films prepared in electron beam evaporation method

ZrO2 thin films were prepared in electron beam thermal evaporation method. And the deposition rate changed from 1.3 to 6.3 nm/s in our study. X-ray diffractometer and spectrophotometer were employed to characterize the films. X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra pattern shows that films structure changed from amorphous to polycrystalline with deposition rate increasing. The results indicate that internal stresses of the films are compressive in most case. Thin films deposited in our study are inhomogeneous, and the inhomogeneity is enhanced with the deposition rate increasing.
