Imaging Scatterometer for Observing Changes to Optical Coatings During Air Annealing
arXiv:2202.12393
Abstract
Air annealing generally reduces absorption, scattering, and mechanical loss in amorphous coatings up to temperatures where damage occurs. Our instrument uses an industrial oven with viewports to observe coating scatter and damage during annealing.
