Interfacial optical absorption in TiO2–SiO2 multilayer coatings prepared by rf magnetron sputtering

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A narrow bandpass filter consisting of nineteen alternate layers of TiO2 and SiO2 was fabricated by rf magnetron sputtering without thickness monitoring. Analysis of the measured transmittance spectrum suggests that energy loss exists at interlayer boundaries. A digital thin film consisting of 182 alternate layers showed additional absorption in the visible to near-infrared range. The additional absorption disturbs fabrication of flip-flop digital thin films by rf sputtering, and it might be a cause of the laser-induced damage in optical coatings which has been a problem for a long time.
