Abstract

We have developed a new technique for producing antireflection coatings on various substrate materials including fused silica and optical glasses. This coating applied on a fused silica has a damage threshold of over 6 J/cm2 at 355 nm. Since the coating is very broadband and mechanically stable, it can be used not only with high-power lasers but also in other areas such as optical communications and optical apparatus.
