Laser induced damage in optical materials: 1976. Proceedings of 8th Annual symposium on optical materials for high power lasers
Abstract
Materials for use at 10.6 micrometers in mirror substrates, windows, and coatings are discussed. Techniques in film deposition, and advances in diamond turning of optics were described. The scaling of damage thresholds with pulse duration, focal area, and wavelength are discussed.
