Abstract | Thin films of MgF2 of about 300 nm thickness were deposited by the electron beam evaporation technique, without employing an assisting ion beam and at different assisting ion beam parameters. The role of the assisting ion beam on the film optical and structural properties and on the film resistance to laser damage was studied. Measurements were performed on samples soon after the film deposition and on samples left for 3 months under uncontrolled environmental conditions. The resulting data was analyzed in detail. |
