IBS Coatings with the Highest Damage Thresholds
UK39-0010
The power densities in laser systems are increasing. In continuous-wave operation it is possible to achieve an output power of more than 10 kW. A similar increase can be observed in pulsed systems. Thus, it is no wonder that laser users are looking for optics that are designed for a high power output.
LASER COMPONENTS has manufactured high power laser optics for over 25 years. The demand for quality is high, which is why we continually optimise and improve the damage thresholds of our coatings. We not only consider damage threshold measurements from independent institutes according to ISO 11254 a reliable qualification but the results obtained by our customers as well.
A comparative measurement of all methods available at LASER COMPONENTS has shown that the modern ion beam sputtering (IBS) process is the leading technology in damage threshold tests. Particularly with special coatings, such as for example, thin-film polarisers, a significant improvement was made.
It has been shown once again that in demanding high power applications IBS coatings are the ultimate benchmark.
