Abstract

Quality and reliability of optical coatings can be evaluated by studying their basic and durability properties. A simple experimental technique is developed which facilitates easy and quick estimation of the quality and reliability of optical coatings as well as optimization of process parameters. This technique has been successfully applied for process optimization of anti-reflection coatings (arcs) for Ge optics in their region.
