退火对电子束热蒸发193nm Al2O3/MgF2反射膜性能的影响

设计并镀制了193nm Al2O3/MgF2反射膜,对它们在空气中分别进行了250-400℃的高温退火,测量了样品的透射率光谱曲线和绝对反射率光谱曲线.发现样品在高反射区的总的光学损耗随退火温度的升高而下降,而后趋于饱和.采用总积分散射的方法对样品在不同退火温度下的散射损耗进行了分析,发现随着退火温度的升高散射损耗有所增加.因此,总的光学损耗的下降是由于吸收损耗而不是散射损耗起主导作用.对Al2O3材料的单层膜进行了同等条件的退火处理,由它们光学性能的变化推导出它们的折射率和消光系数的变化,从而解释了相应

High-reflectance 193 nm Al2O3/MgF2 mirrors

Thin-film single layers of Al2O3 and MgF2 were deposited upon super polished fused-silica by electron-beam evaporation. The subsequent optical constants n and k were reported for the spectral range of 180-230 nm. High-reflectance dense multilayer coatings for 193 nm were designed on the basis of the evaluated optical constants and produced. The spectra of the reflectance of HR coatings were compared to the theoretical calculations. HR mirrors of 27 layers with a reflectance of more than 98% were reported. (c) 2004 Elsevier B.V.

高反射率193nm Al2O3／MgF2反射膜的实验研究

用电子束热蒸发方法在熔融石英基底上沉积了Al2O3和MgF2两种材料的单层膜，研究了两种材料的光学特性，采用光度法计算并给出了薄膜材料在180～230nm的折射率n／和消光系数k的色散曲线。以两种材料作为高低折射率材料组合，采用1／4波长规整膜系设计并镀制了193nm的高反射膜，反射膜在退火后的反射率在193nm达到96％以上。结果表明在一定工艺条件下Al2O3和MgF2两种材料能够在193nm获得较好的光学性能，适用于高反射膜的制备。

退火对电子束热蒸发Al2O3薄膜性能影响的实验研究

用电子束热蒸发方法镀制了Al2O3材料的单层膜，对它们在空气中进行了250～400℃的高温退火。对样品的透射率光谱曲线进行了测量，计算了样品的消光系数、折射率和截止波长。通过X射线衍射仪(XRD)测量分析了薄膜的微观结构，采用表面轮廓仪测量了样品的表面均方根粗糙度。结果发现随着退火温度的提高光学损耗下降，薄膜结构在退火温度为400℃时仍然为无定形态，样品的表面粗糙度随退火温度的升高而增加。引起光学损耗下降起主导作用的是吸收而不是散射，吸收损耗的下降主要是由于退火使材料吸收空气中的氧而进一步氧化，从而使薄膜

Control of polarization for a broadband dichroic filter at 45 degrees incidence

A method for the control of polarization for a broadband dichroic filter was reported and some design examples were elaborated. This method could be applied over a wide range of wavelengths and a wide range of polarizations in the transmission region. A nonpolaiizing broadband dichroic filter and a broadband dichroic filter with certain polarization were designed and fabricated by electron beam evaporation with ion beam assisted deposition. The experimental spectral performances showed good agreement with their theoretical curves. In addition, the application of the method was discussed. (c) 2007 Optical Society of America

Structural and optical properties of nanostructured TiO2 thin films fabricated by glancing angle deposition

TiO2 films deposited by electron beam evaporation with glancing angle deposition (GLAD) technique were reported. The influence of flux angle on the surface morphology and the microstructure was investigated by scanning electron microscopy. The GLAD TiO2 films are anisotropy with highly orientated nanostructure of the slanted columns. With the increase of flux angle, refractive index and packing density decrease. This is caused by the shadowing effect dominating film growth. The anisotropic structure of TiO2 films results in optical birefringence, which reaches its maximum at the flux angle alpha = 65 degrees. The maximum birefringence of GLAD TiO2 films is higher than that of common bulk materials. It is suggested that glancing angle deposition may offer an effective method to obtain tailorable refractive index and birefringence in a large continuous range. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.

Influence of deposition conditions on the microstructure of oxides thin films

Thin films of ZrO2, HfO2 and TiO2 were deposited on kinds of substrates by electron beam evaporation (EB), ion assisted deposition (IAD) and dual ion beam sputtering (DIBS). Then some of them were annealed at different temperatures. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was applied to determine the crystalline phase and the grain size of these films, and the results revealed that their microstructures strongly depended on the deposition conditions such as substrate, deposition temperature, deposition method and annealing temperature. Theory of crystal growth and migratory diffusion were applied to explain the difference of crystalline structures between these thin films deposited and treated under various conditions.

Preparation and characterization of nanostructured ZrO2 thin films by glancing angle deposition

ZrO2 films were prepared by electron beam evaporation with glancing angle deposition (GLAD) technique. The as-deposition and annealed ZrO2 films are all amorphous, different from that deposited at normal incidence. Due to the shadowing effect, a highly orientated structure composed of slanted columns formed, and the obtained films became the mixture of slanted columns and voids. The relationship among the effective refractive index, packing density and flux incident angle was investigated. The refractive index and packing density of ZrO2 films decrease with the increase of the incident angle. The in-plane birefringence of GLAD ZrO2 films was calculated. At the packing density of 0.576, the maximum birefringence is 0.037. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

LBO晶体上具有不同厚度过渡层的倍频增透膜的设计和制备

Design and preparation of frequency doubling antireflection coating with different thicknesses of interlayer were investigated for LiB₃O₅ (LBO) substrate. The design was based on the vector method. The thickness of the inserted SiO₂ interlayer could be changed in a wide range for the four-layer design with two zeros at 1064 and 532 nm. The coatings without any interlayer and with 0.1 quarter-wave (λ/4), 0.3 λ/4, 0.5 λ/4 SiO₂ interlayer were deposited respectively on LBO by using electron beam evaporation technique. All the prepared coatings with SiO₂ interlayer indicated satisfying optical behavior. This expanded our option for the thickness of an interlayer when coating on LBO substrate. The prepared films with SiO₂ interlayer showed better adhesion than that without any interlayer. The thickness of the interlayer affected the adhesion, the adhesion for the coating with 0.5 λ/4 SiO₂ interlayer was not as good as the other two.}

用电子束蒸发法制备出四种不同Y2O3含量的Y2O3稳定ZrO2（YSZ）薄膜,用X射线衍射和透射光谱测定薄膜的结构和光学性能.结果表明：随着Y2O3含量的增加,ZrO2薄膜从单斜相向高温相（四方相和立方相）转变,获得了结构稳定的YSZ薄膜;YSZ薄膜的晶粒尺寸都比ZrO2薄膜的大,但随着Y2O3加入量的增加,晶粒尺寸有减小的趋势,薄膜表面也趋向光滑平整.所有YSZ薄膜的透射谱线都与ZrO2薄膜相似,在可见光和红外光区都有较高的透过率.Y2O3的加入还可以改变薄膜的折射率,在一定范围内可得到所需的任意折射率

LBO晶体上1064，532nm倍频增透膜的镀制及性能分析

用电子束蒸发沉积方法在X切LBO（X-LBO）晶体上镀制了两种不同膜系结构的1064和532nm倍频增透膜，其中一种膜系结构为基底／ZrO2／Y2O3／A12O3／SiO2／空气，另一种为基底／0．5Al2O3／ZrO2／Y2O3／A12O3／SiO2／空气，两种膜系结构的主要差别在于有无氧化铝过渡层。测量了薄膜的反射率光谱曲线，发现两种增透膜在1064和532nm处的反射率均小于0．5％，实际镀制结果与理论设计曲线的差异主要是由材料折射率的变化引起的。且对样品在空气环境中进行了温度为473K的退火处理，
