Apparatus to Measure Optical Scatter of Coatings Versus Annealing Temperature

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Light scattered by amorphous thin-film optical coatings limits the sensitivity of interferometric gravitational-wave detectors. We describe an imaging scatterometer to assess the role that crystal growth during annealing plays in this scatter.
