Twenty-three different coating designs were exposed to the intense soft x-ray radiation from the Blackjack 5 source. A number of post- test measurements were made to characterize the x-ray effects. Reported here are the results of the metallographic characterizations. The objectives were to identify the probable causes of any observed damage and to determine the damage mechanisms and their temporal behaviors. These characterization data have been correlated with light scattering data and code predictions to aid in the development of a fundamental understanding of the requirements for the survivability of optical coatings in a nuclear environment. 7 refs; 6 figs; 1 tab.
