Title: Impact of high refractive coating material on the nodular-induced electric field enhancement for near infrared multilayer mirrors

Abstract

Electric field enhancement due to nodular defects within quarter-wave optical thickness multilayer mirrors is impacted by the inclusion diameter, inclusion depth, inclusion composition, nodular shape, multilayer angular bandwidth, multilayer coating materials, number of layers, angle of incidence, and polarization. In this study, the electric field enhancement for surface inclusions with diameters up to 2 µm irradiated at 1064 nm at either normal or 45 deg incidence is calculated for high refractive index materials over a refractive index range of 1.7–2.3 for oxide materials commonly used in the near infrared. The thicknesses of the multilayer mirror thin films are determined for each high refractive index material by a requirement to meet a 99.5% reflection. The refractive index was found to have a significant impact on the electric field enhancement, which may offer some insight into the optimal material choice to produce high laser damage threshold mirrors.

Electric-Field Enhancement by Nodular Defects in Multilayer Coatings Irradiated at Normal and 45 (degree) Incidence

Conference Stolz, C J ; Genin, F Y ; Pistor, T V

The standing-wave electric-field profile within multilayer coatings is significantly perturbated by a nodular defect. The intensity, which is proportional to the electric field squared, is increased in the high index material by {>=}3x at normal incidence and {>=}12x at 45 degrees incidence angle. Therefore it is not surprising that nodular defects are initiation sites of laser-induced damage. In this study, the impact of reflectance-band centering and incident angle are explored for a 1 {micro}m diameter nodular defect seed overcoated with a 24 layer high-reflector constructed of quarter-wave thick alternating layers of hafnia and silica. The modeling was performed using amore »« less

2-1/2-D electromagnetic modeling of nodular defects in high-power multilayer optical coatings

Technical Report Molau, N E ; Brand, H R ; Kozlowski, M R ; ...

Advances in the design and production of high damage threshold optical coatings for use in mirrors and polarizers have been driven by the design requirements of high-power laser systems such as the proposed 1.8-MJ National Ignition Facility (NIF) and the prototype 12- kJ Beamlet laser system. The present design of the NIF will include 192 polarizers and more than 1100 mirrors. Currently, the material system of choice for high-power multilayer optical coatings with high damage threshold applications near 1.06 {mu}m are e-beam deposited HfO{sub 2}/Si0{sub 2} coatings. However, the optical performance and laser damage thresholds of these coatings are limitedmore »« less

Morphologies of laser-induced damage in hafnia-silica multilayer mirror and polarizer coatings

Conference Genin, F Y ; Stolz, C J

Hafnium-silica multilayer mirrors and polarizers were deposited by e-beam evaporation onto BK7 glass substrates. The mirrors and polarizers were coated for operation at 1053 nm at 45{degree} and at Brewster`s angle (56{degree}), respectively. They were tested with a single 3-ns laser pulse. Morphology of the laser-induced damage was characterized by optical and scanning electron microscopy. Four distinct damage morphologies were found: pits, flatbottom pits, scalds, and delaminates. The pits and flat bottom pits (<30{mu}m dia) were detected at lower fluences (as low as 5 J/cm{sup 2}). The pits seemed to result from ejection of nodular defects by causing local enhancementmore »« less

Laser-damage susceptibility of nodular defects in dielectric mirror coatings: AFM measurements and electric-field modeling

Conference Kozlowski, M R ; DeFord, J F ; Staggs, M C - AIP Conference Proceedings (American Institute of Physics); (United States)

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and electromagnetic field modeling were used to study the influence of nodular coating defects on laser-induced damage of multilayer dielectric coatings. In studies of HfO[sub 2]/SiO[sub 2] mirrors with 1.06 [mu]m illumination, AFM results showed that nodular defects with high dome heights ([gt]0.6 [mu]m) were most susceptible to laser damage. Crater defects, formed by nodules ejected from the coating prior to illumination, were not damaged when illuminated over the same range of fluences. A finite-difference time-domain electromagnetic modeling code was used to study the influence of 3-D nodule defects on the E-field distribution within the interferencemore »« less
